It’s never too early to start talking about WrestleMania, and even though the event is still months away it sounds like WWE is already making plans for the main event.
For years now it’s been rumored that WWE wants to book The Rock vs. Roman Reigns for Mania with the idea being that it would take place from SoFi Stadium in California.
Dave Meltzer recently discussed the situation on Wrestling Observer Radio and said that Rock vs. Reigns is “100% the plan” for WrestleMania 39. However, it was also noted that it’s the plan only of Rock can do the match. WrestleMania 39 is still months away, so it’s possible that other opportunities may come up for The Rock.
Paul Heyman recently hyped up a possible Roman Reigns vs. The Rock match on the MackMania podcast, and he said that The Tribal Chief will give The Great one the match.
“I mean, listen, if Dwayne Johnson wants the publicity to lose to Roman Reigns, we’ll give him a title match. He doesn’t even have to wait in line or win a battle Royal or whatever, there’s box office there. I’m impressed with what Dwayne Johnson has done outside of WWE and I would counsel Roman Reigns that we could make a special provision to defend the title and smash Dwayne Johnson. Dwayne Johnson wants to take that beating, he is more than welcome to step up to The Tribal Chief, as long as he understands that when the match is over, he’s going to be like everyone else, and that he’s going to acknowledge The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.”
