Pro-wrestling is an amalgamation of sports and entertainment and it keeps the fans on the edge of their seats. People do have an impression that pro-wrestling is fake, but it is an art form that the professionals practice for many years. Bayley, WWE's first-ever Women's Grand Slam Champion, held a training camp named Lodestone in order to help female wrestlers improve their technique.

Notable female wrestlers who have been Bayley's in-ring rivals and allies, including the likes of Charlotte Flair, Nattie Neidhart, Bianca Belair, Ivy Nile, Lyra Valkyria, and Rhea Ripley, attended the training session, but it was John Cena who interacted with the young and upcoming stars who want to make a name for themselves in the sports entertainment industry.

"A few months into John’s retirement tour, I asked him if we could sit down sometime so I can pick his brain on what I can do to help the business continue to grow as he steps away. We never got to have this talk, but we didn’t need to. Tonight he showed me. He showed up," wrote Bayley on her Instagram account.
