“Should I train? #AbsolutelyNot”

The Rock, 49, saw the tweet – and quoted it responding: “
Technically, I wake up @4am every day and I’m training by 5am.
“One day we’ll have to bang on some iron together.
“The world’s strongest man, boxer, actor etc and the big, brown, bald, tattooed guy who’s only famous for wearing a fanny pack.
“Keep kickin’ ass brother

Bjornsson won’t be training for a Hall rematch any time soon – after revealing that it could be two years until he agrees to one.
Laying out his terms, he recent said on his YouTube channel: “If you really want that rematch then I am willing to give you it but I am not signing that contract.
Is Eddie the next fight? I don’t think so

“You get the tattoo then we can discuss any rematch. I want to obviously fight more. Is Eddie the next fight? I don’t think so.
“I think the right way to do this is for Eddie to have some fights and for me to have some fights.
“If we both win our fights we can build some more hype for a future fight.
“I would love that maybe in a year or two years me and Eddie can fight again.
“But fighting right now again I don’t think is the right choice, I think fighting in a year or two is something that can be more exciting.”
