If you are anything like me, then you will find the following video interview interesting, after all it is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who is talking with 3-time Emmy winner Chris Van Vliet about FURIOUS 7, including how he asked Jason Statham if he could do his ‘Rock Bottom’ move in the movie, CM Punk in the UFC, and also if Roman Reigns is ready to be a WWE Champion.

What is more interesting, is that this could possibly, contain a huge spoiler alert for tonight’s WrestleMania 31, as Chris Van Vliet asks if “The Rock” will be facing Brock Lesnar at Summer Slam next year!

Jimmy Fallon introduced UFC women’s bantamweight champ, Ronda Rousey.
Ronda Rousey on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
She is currently undefeated. Jimmy Fallon said “You look gorgeous!” and told her that she had a “great name for a fighter.”
She told him “Once I started taking judo lessons, it let a lot of my aggression out.” Her mom had been a judo champion, Ronda told Fallon.
“Where did you think your judo would take you?” Fallon asked her.
Ronda replied that she won a medal in the Olympics, before she got into mixed martial arts. She said that her mom had called the idea “the stupidest idea you’ve ever had.”
While in the ring, Ronda said that she “was completely emotionless. It’s just observations and decisions.”
“Fighting isn’t a man’s thing, it’s a human’s thing,” Ronda stated. “To say that it’s a man’s thing is anti-feminist.”
“They call you the ‘Arm Collector,’” Fallon said, “because you snap people’s arms.”
Ronda Rousey Armbar on Jimmy Fallon
Ronda asked him “Give me your arm,” and she demonstrated on him what she does in a fight. His “safe word” was “Rumpelstiltskin,” and he said it pretty quickly, once she demonstrated what she does on his arm.
