Former NFL star Warren Sapp was on Shannon Sharpe's "CLUB SHAY SHAY" podcast and revealed that his college teammate Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson got many of his WWE catchphrases from Ed Orgeron who was their position coach at Miami. Per TheBigLead:
quote:Sapp talks about the story in this video below at the 2:18min mark:
Orgeron coached the defensive line at Miami from 1988 to 1992 and had both Sapp and Johnson as pupils. Sapp told Sharpe that "candyass" and "shoving it sideways" were among things Orgeron used to say to the linemen if they had a bad practice or game. Johnson just adapted them to his character once he debuted in WWE.
