For the past few years, The Rock and Roman Reigns have been in a heated rivalry that WWE’s devoted fans anxiously anticipated. According to rumours from last year, the Rock might have returned to the ring at WrestleMania 39.
The preparations were subsequently abandoned because of Dwayne Johnson’s filming schedule and other obligations. The most recent reports, however, indicate that Dwayne Johnson might return to the ring at WrestleMania 40.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio made the big revelation
According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE is hoping to see Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, return to the ring at WrestleMania 40. The Rock turned down the chance to wrestle in Los Angeles to commemorate his comeback, according to The Wrestling Observer Radio, leaving a “crack in the door.” “When he declined this year due to scheduling conflicts, Dwayne Johnson left the possibility of performing in Philadelphia at WrestleMania 40 open. But that was by no means a promise, and nobody should bank on it happening, “Dave Meltzer remarked.
For the uninitiated, The Rock last competed in a single full-fledged match at WrestleMania 29 in 2013, where John Cena defeated him. Later, at WrestleMania 32, The People’s Champion competed against Erick Rowan; however, the bout could only endure for six seconds. Later, Dwayne “Rock” Johnson did make a brief cameo on WWE SmackDown’s 20th anniversary in 2019. Formerly, it was anticipated that Johnson would compete in the WWE Royal Rumble 2023, take the title, and then appear at WrestleMania 39. Later, it was discovered that the reports were untrue.
Professionally, Dwayne Johnson is currently doing his best for the XFL, the football league he bought from Vince McMahon. Moreover, he appears to have left Warner Bros. and the DC Universe following the takeover from James Gunn and the behind-the-scenes drama surrounding his movie Black Adam (2022). Various responses have been expressed in response to Johnson’s recent announcement that he would work again with Disney on a live-action Moana (2016) adaptation.
