The Rock Vs. Roman Reigns Not Locked In For WWE WrestleMania 40
Latest on The Rock vs. Roman Reigns at WWE WrestleMania 40
Jan 24, 2024
The Rock is very much back in the WWE sphere, having returned to WWE TV and teased an Undisputed WWE Universal Title match against Roman Reigns by asking if he should sit at the head of the table.
The match has yet to be made official and, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, The Rock has yet to officially sign with WWE to wrestle. Dwayne Johnson wants to have a match with Reigns, though, and he is keen on the match taking place at WrestleMania, but that plan has yet to be locked in.
One idea pitched is for The Rock vs. Roman Reigns to actually take place in Saudi Arabia as the Middle Eastern kingdom may pay extra money to have the high-profile match. The Rock, however, is more interested in having the match at WrestleMania.
The Rock won't be away from WWE any time soon, having joined the TKO Board of Directors. While speaking to ESPN First Take about his appointment, Johnson admitted he thinks The Rock vs. Roman Reigns could produce the greatest and biggest WrestleMania of all time.
"Look, you guys know, I feel like you know me - I'm a long-gamer. I like to build. And what this is, if myself and Roman Reigns were to main event WrestleMania, and I mean this very respectfully of all the WrestleManias prior because I grew up in this business and I love it, we could possibly put on - with us as the main event and this incredible group of men and women who are these incredible performers - we could possibly put on the greatest and the biggest WrestleMania of all time," Johnson said.
