There is no doubt that The Rock is still regarded as of the most popular pro wrestlers in the history of the business, but his plans for a WrestleMania 32 match appeared to sabotage Sting’s debut against Triple H. He has competed against the best of the best as far as the world of professional wrestling. This includes someone like Chris Jericho, who has had several matches against The Great One. Roman Reigns vs The Rock major spoilers were also leaked previously.
Billi Bhatti said on The Dirty Sheets podcast that Vince McMahon promised The Rock he’d beat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, whereas Triple H may have wanted him to lose. The Saudi Arabia rumored sale and Vince McMahon’s scandals also played a role in The Rock backing out. Bruce Prichard is reportedly spreading rumors that The Rock didn’t want to lose to Reigns.
Eric Bischoff appeared on the Strictly Business podcast to discuss some plans for the Rock’s return.
“[He] never has to lift a finger, never has to get out of his chair, and now we’re reversing one of Roman’s greatest attributes: his ability to get inside your head. All it will take is a look from Rock and a wink to Cody and a smile on Cody’s face — at that point, 50% of Roman’s power has been decimated by the mere presence of The Rock.”
