If there’s anyone who can deliver an inspirational speech, Dwayne Johnson is the guy you need. We all know about his muscle pump, but when it comes to giving a pumping speech, he motivates like no other.
Everyone flourishes with a patriotic feeling when it comes to supporting their nation. The former WWE star also showed his patriotism when his fellow countryfolk represented the US on such a big stage.
The people’s champion had promised the USWNT coach, Jill Ellis, to send a motivating video to the team ahead of the biggest showdown. And just like that, Dwayne kept his word and gave an electrifying speech.
Dwayne Johnson gave his pep talk for The Gals
Back in 2015, the USWNT locked horns with Japan during the FIFA World Cup finals that were being held in Vancouver, Canada. The Americans were coming off with an easy 2-0 win against Germany. Whereas, the Japanese clinched a dramatic winning goal against England.
The USWNT already had some unfinished business left with the Japanese, who lost the previous final in 2011 on penalties.
And before the finals, the Rocky Champion had few motivating words for the Gals.
“Remember that you guys are the greatest in the world at what you do. And I say that with all respect to the other teams, you are the greatest in the world at what you do. You have earned it. You guys are rock stars, you guys are warriors. At the end of the day you are 23 of the biggest bada***es walking God’s green earth.” said Dwayne.
The Rock recorded the video during his gym workout. He said he is proud of the team and has been inspired by them throughout their World Cup journey.
“Go handle your business. You push the pace, you dominate that game and then bring it on back home,” Johnson added.
