Original Plans For The Rock At The Royal Rumble And WrestleMania 35

It’s been years since fans have seen The Rock wrestle a match on the Grandest Stage of Them All, but WWE will always welcome The Great One Back whenever he decides to return.

It’s been rumored that The Rock could be returning for a match at WrestleMania 35 next year, and WrestleVotes is reporting that at one point the plan was for Rock to win the Royal Rumble.

According to WrestleVotes, Rock then would have gone on to WrestleMania to face Roman Reigns.

However, that plan is now off the table, as there’s currently no timeline for Roman Reigns’ return.

It seems that WWE had to change plans in a major way after Roman Reigns vacated the Universal Championship, but it will be interesting to see who The Rock ends up facing if he does indeed return for a match at Mania next year.

Who would you like to see him face? Sound off in the comments below.
