Latest regarding The Rock’s mindset about having a match in WWE against Roman Reigns
As previously noted, WWE has reportedly not finalized plans for when The Rock vs. undisputed WWE Universal champion Roman Reigns might take place.
Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com reported that Rock vs. Reigns “is still on the boards but for later, as long as Rock is open to doing it.” Meltzer noted that according to one person in the company, Johnson is “headstrong” about having a match with Reigns at a Wrestlemania event. Meltzer also wrote the following…
“According to WWE sources, Johnson has not officially signed a deal to wrestle for the company but the key word said about that is ‘Yet.'”
While being interviewed on The Will Cain Show last week, Rock commented on the potential match…
“We’re talking about that right now. I’d like to consider myself a long gamer and a builder. So, the idea of going up against Roman Reigns and creating, if we were to do something like that, quite possibly, and I mean this respectfully of all the other WrestleManias before us, and keep in mind, Will, as you know, I was born into the wrestling business with my grandfather and my dad. My grandfather wrestled for Vince McMahon Sr. back when it was called the WWF, my dad came along in the 80s, Rocky Johnson, and here I come along. So, I think with all the success and the buildup of all the WrestleManias in the past, if we were to do something like that, we could possibly put on the biggest WrestleMania of all time. So, the short answer and the long answer is we’re figuring it out.” (quote courtesy of Sportskeeda.com)
