Everyone has to start somewhere, right?

The Rock started his pro wrestling career in the United States Wrestling Association and, over the weekend, he shared this clip of him cutting his very first promo before a match in Memphis. He went by the name Flex Kavana back then and, truthfully, he didn’t act all that differently than The Rock did years later. But it’s clear he still had some work to do with regards to his showmanship. Also: “We’re very naughty by nature and we’re very violent by decision”? LMAO. Oh, Rock.

Check out the clip above. You can watch the full fight in the clip below starting at around the six-minute mark.
