The Rock is one of the biggest names in WWE. ‘The Great One’ teased making his return to WWE to confront The Bloodline. A match between Roman Reigns and The Rock at WrestleMania 39 had been slated for a long time, as the company had constantly dropped teases for the same for well over a year.
However, the match was never booked at the Show of Shows. The Rock simply couldn’t be ready in time to wrestle at WrestleMania 39. That said, fans never gave up hope for a future match between the two. There is a possibility that the match could finally take place next year at WrestleMania 40.
The Rock might return at WrestleMania 40
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, The Rock has not closed the door on WrestleMania 40. He “left a crack in the door” that a WrestleMania match might be possible next year.
