A recent dispute between The Rock and WWE regarding travel plans disrupted a training camp in Los Angeles immediately prior to WrestleMania 40, according to former NXT star Wolfgang.
Wolfgang, speaking to Cultaholic’s Tom Campbell, confirmed a “bit of a falling out” occurred. This disagreement specifically involved The Rock’s transportation to the training facility in Los Angeles.
The planned Tuesday training session for The Rock was subsequently scrapped due to the issue. Wolfgang speculated on the nature of the dispute, illustrating it as one party expecting the other to provide transport: “You come pick me up in your private plane. No, no no, you come pick me up. I’ll be here, you come get me.”

Wolfgang further characterized the situation as “someone big leaguing the other one,” implying a power struggle over who should accommodate whom. He added, “I think it was a case of, ‘No, I don’t drive to you. You collect me.’”
The travel complication left Wolfgang, Joe Coffey, and Mark Coffey—who were also involved in The Rock’s training for WrestleMania 40 Night One—with an unexpected free day in Los Angeles. They arrived on Monday, with Tuesday initially scheduled as the first training day, followed by Wednesday and Thursday if necessary. The disrupted Tuesday allowed them to enjoy a day as tourists in the city instead.
