The Rock & WWE Star’s Child Bombshell Revealed

Future WWE Hall of Famer The Rock is one of the greatest stars of the company and his advice certainly has huge worth. It has been noted that D-Von Dudley did not want his sons to become wrestlers until he heard The Rock’s story of how he got started in WWE. Dudley’s sons, Terrell Hughes and Terrence Hughes, began wrestling in 2015. They currently perform on the independent circuit after gaining experience on AEW Dark between November 2020 and July 2021.

 


 

D-Von Dudley reveals conversation with The Rock

Speaking on his Table Talk podcast, D-Von recalled a conversation he once had with The Rock about his sons. D-Von Dudley was initially reluctant to allow his sons wrestle due to the negative aspects of the industry but now he fully supports their wrestling dream and hopes to see them join NXT one day:

“He goes, ‘Listen, D-Von, if my father wouldn’t have agreed to help train me and do what I do, I wouldn’t be The Rock, I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing… My life could’ve totally took a different path. Maybe you should think about it. If you train them, do it yourself, then you know they got brought up in the business the right way.’”

Terrell and Terrence Hughes learned how to wrestle at their father’s Team 3D Academy. Known as TNT, the duo participated in a WWE tryout in 2018 and appeared on WWE television as security guards in 2020. D-Von Dudley added that he regularly receives messages from his former co-workers praising his sons’ in-ring performances:

“I’m proud to say that every time they’re at an indie show or somewhere where there’s somebody from the Attitude Era, I get a text or a phone call saying, ‘Damn, D-Von, those boys are good. Those boys are real good,’ and I’m very happy about that.”
