The Rock Recreates Paige vs AJ Lee After WWE Raw For Fighting With My Family Movie
Fighting With My Family took centre stage when Raw went off the air.
News of The Rock and WWE's forthcoming biopic on Paige's family only broke a couple of weeks ago, but production is already well underway. Actors Vince Vaughn, Lena Headey, and Nick Frost have already been confirmed for Fighting With My Family, and some of the cast were on-hand to film after last night's Raw.
The film features a recreation of Paige's famous Raw debut, when she defeated AJ Lee to become WWE Divas Champion within minutes of arriving. That scene was filmed after last night's Raw in the Staples Center, Los Angeles, with former TNA Knockout Thea Trinidad (who has also appeared for NXT) playing Lee. Actress Florence Pugh is playing the role of Paige, but her in-ring work is being done by her stunt double, Tessa Blanchard.
The Rock's Seven Bucks Productions are collaborating with WWE Studios on the film, and the People's Champion made a post-Raw appearance himself. Having been "fired" by Vince McMahon on the pre-show, Rocky re-appeared to call CM Punk and leave a voicemail after the show.
Aside from seemingly turning AJ Lee into a third Bella twin, it sounds like they did a fine job. Photos and videos from the post-Raw filming can be found below:-
