After months of anticipation The Rock finally returned to the ring on Saturday night when he teamed with Roman Reigns to defeat Seth Rollins & Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40.
Rock’s match on Saturday night was his first match since WrestleMania 32, and his first full match since he face John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania 29. After night one of WrestleMania 40 wrapped up The Great One made an appearance at the post-show press conference and noted that he feels great following his return match.
“I feel great, body feels great, I just had the time of my life, and I put in a lot of work, we had a hell of a training camp which lasted probably 10-12 weeks and I wanted to make sure I was as prepared as I could possibly be. These guys who I wrestled with tonight as you guys knew, they’re the best in the world and on the planet and I wanted to make sure I came in game ready and ring ready as best I can. As you guys knew, it’s impossible to simulate what happens in the ring. You can run your training camps, I had a ring set up and flown to Hawaii where we were at, where I spend a lot of time with my family, where we live, a ring in California as well, a ring in Georgia, to make sure around every corner, everywhere I went, the first quarter of this year, there was a ring. Flew in a lot of wrestlers who are really amazing and willing to work their asses off to just make sure that I was prepared, so we went out there, I enjoyed every second of that, and I’ve been a lucky guy over the years to have participated in some cool things that have been very gratifying. There is nothing like performing at WrestleMania, in front of thousands and thousands of people, and there is nothing like performing with your fellow pro-wrestlers.”
While talking about whether or not there’s another match in his future The Rock said, “There might be. Can’t elaborate much on that, but there might be. I love what I do, and I love our business, and I was born into our business, as you guys know, so we’ll see.”
