They have a plan for that. This year’s Summerslam is now out of the way and that means the end of the year is not that far away. Once we get to the end of the year, it is time to start getting ready for WrestleMania season, which means the show is going to need a main event. WWE might have something planned for the show and it might be one of the biggest matches in a long time.
According to Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE’s current plan is for The Rock to face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39. It is not clear if the match would be for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title or not. There is also no guarantee that the match will take place, as Rock may have something bigger come along before the show. There is no word on who would face Reigns if Rock is unavailable.
Opinion: This is firmly in the category of I’ll believe it when I see it, as Rock getting back in the ring for a major match is not something that you see happen very often. He hasn’t wrestled a serious match in over ten years and while he may be great, there is only so much that you can do to get ready for the WrestleMania main event. At the same time, there is every chance that the match doesn’t happen due to Rock’s Hollywood schedule, so we have a lot of waiting around before we get to see if it happens.
What do you think of the match? Will it wind up happening? Let us know in the comments below.
