Former WWE Superstar Sylvain Grenier has been associated with The Rock’s family for many years now.
Speaking on the Culture State podcast, Grenier commented on being able to train with the Johnsons and his friendship with the family.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On training with the Johnsons: “[Rocky Johnson] gave me tips, he gave me shoes, clothes. At the time [The Rock] was sponsored by Nike and we had the same shoe size, so my first pair of boots was from The Rock.”
On his friendship with the family: “Every Thursday after practice, I used to go to Rocky’s house and we’d watch The Rock on SmackDown and we’d cook. I was really fortunate. I didn’t blossom like The Rock, but who can?”
On Rocky Johnson: “[He] was really over the top. But, he had a big heart and he was generous. Rocky was an entertainer before it was entertainment.”
