I'd like to power this 12V 5.5a 41.3W dc motor https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/dc-motors/0420619

I feel like I can use a fairly standard ac/dc power supply like this https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/ac-dc-adapters/8319141 but firstly I'm not sure if it matters whether the current and power ratings of this power supply exceed the motor ratings.

Secondly I don't know how I would connect this to a PWM like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Controller-Adjustable-Stepless-Governor-Regulator/dp/B078TC3DTX/ref=asc_df_B078TC3DTX/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310883071142&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2330008660984506684&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045954&hvtargid=pla-452985164615&psc=1&mcid=f02a76dabb523a5da5db1992be26ed31 (bit skeptical of this one but its cheap).

Can I just strip the plug end of the power supply and connect it do the PWM terminals? Also do I need any additional components? I've heard people mention stuff like a bridge rectifier and flyback protection put i don't know what these terms mean.
