Yes, believe it or not, this could have happened!
The Rock has achieved greatness in everything he's ever tried, be it football, professional wrestling and even Hollywood. Recently, he revealed that he once considered yet another career path at one point in time. The Rock almost became an MMA star and subsequently decided against it. He made this revelation through a Tweet in response to a post by 'Muscle and Fitness' and made waves across social media almost immediately.
Greg Jackson is a legendary trainer who has trained some of the biggest names in Mixed Martial Arts like the legendary Jon Jones, Carlos Condit, and Holly Holm among others. It would certainly have been interesting to see The Rock inside the octagon fighting with the world's best.
