The Rock Gives Advice to Dakota Kai, Tessa Blanchard Hits Back At Rude Twitter Fan

A few days ago, NXT Star Dakota Kai spoke with WWE and noted how The Rock was a big reason why she got into wrestling

"My brother was the one who actually got me into WWE. He watched it all the time, and I started to watch with him," Kai said. "I was hooked on The Rock and his ability to captivate an audience. From there, one of my friends I used to do athletics with told me about a local company that needed more girls. That was in 2007, and I haven't looked back since."

Thanks to Twitter, this made its way back to Rock who had this to say to her.

Very cool and flattering @DakotaKai_WWE. Thank you! Look forward to following your career. Work extremely hard, have FUN in the ring performing for the fans and always stay above bullshit backstage politics 😉🤙🏾👊🏾 https://t.co/OI4PTiW20I

- Impact Wrestling’s Tessa Blanchard took to Twitter in order to defend herself following some bizarre comments from one of her followers. Blanchard, 22, has been able to firmly establish herself over the last few years as one of the most promising female talents in professional wrestling.

Being generational is not a bad thing.

My last name doesn’t take the bumps for me, doesn’t travel the miles for me, doesn’t set up the rings or get me up to train. My last name doesn’t squat 225 & bench 135 on an off day.

I’m handed everything because of my last name? Go on. https://t.co/pGKhs7gXuI
