The Rock talked about being nervous before his WWE WrestleMania XL match

During a recent interview with ESPN, The Rock said that before his entrance on Night One of WWE WrestleMania XL, he felt really nervous and anxious because he poured his heart and soul into the storyline leading up to the match.

"All the nerves left my body, and all I could do was just close my eyes and breathe in the mana right in the corner, and that's what I did and it all went away. [Rocky chants began after the intro] I was very nervous about it, and the anxiety level was at a nice clip going in, and usually, if you have anxiety, you have nerves with something big like that, that you poured your heart and soul into, that you have to go out and you have to perform and you get one shot, one take, that's it," The Rock said.

It will be interesting to see what The Rock has planned for his feud with Cody Rhodes upon his return to WWE.
