"Bad MF right there!" - The Rock sends a message to WWE Superstar days before SummerSlam
The Rock has sent a message to a WWE Superstar a week before the SummerSlam Premium Live Event in Cleveland. The superstar in question is Bobby Lashley.
Lashley is still under contract with the Stamford-based company. However, according to the latest reports, he has been removed from the company's internal roster. Rumors have also suggested that the company will not renew The All Mighty's contract.
On Instagram, the former WWE Champion shared a training video that caught the attention of several superstars, including The Rock. The Final Boss praised the 52-year-old for putting in the work.
"Bad MF right there! Keep doing it strong brother," wrote The Rock.

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes opened up about his relationship with The Rock
Cody Rhodes has admitted that he and The Rock don't see eye-to-eye. However, The American Nightmare wished he had a better relationship with The Final Boss. At WrestleMania XL, Rhodes was pinned by his arch-rival during The Bloodline's tag team match against Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
Speaking in an interview on DDP Yoga, the current Undisputed WWE Champion claimed that destiny pitted him and The Rock against each other.
"I wish Rock and I had a better relationship than we do. Destiny pitted us against one another, I suppose. However, I can fully from one moment of eye contact with him understand that he's still the biggest fan of what we do (...) Even though we don't like one another, there are very few people you meet you can tell they're into this, this is it, they love it. [DDP: He loves it the way you love it, he loves it the way I've always loved it] Yeah," Rhodes said.
The People's Champion's last WWE appearance was on RAW after WrestleMania XL, where he had a brief confrontation with Rhodes, as the two superstars momentarily exchanged their respective championships. The Hollywood star also teased a match against Cody in the future before going on hiatus.
