The Rock could be considering a return to WWE to set the stage for an epic WrestleMania Main Event against “The Head of the Table” Roman Reigns!

  • Speculation continues to mount over a possible WrestleMania main event next year that would see Roman Reigns face The Rock.
  • With WWE’s upcoming return to the road, the prevailing idea is that WWE are going to try to pull out all the stops to make ‘The Road to WrestleMania’ memorable.
  • Rumors are circulating today that WWE is pushing for The Rock to appear at this years Survivor Series in Brooklyn, New York, according to Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer.

Andrew Zarian reported that Survivor Series will be in Brooklyn this year with them treating it like it would be a major show. The hope is for Dwayne Johnson to make an appearance at that show but that isn’t locked in, but the hope it for around that time.

If he’s involved that would make it a huge show and it would lead credence to Reigns vs. Johnson for WrestleMania, as Johnson is getting older each year and if he is going to wrestle, he will want to set a box office record if he comes back, and the two places that he could do that would be AT&T Stadium and the new SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA.

Last year, when there was talk of Reigns vs. Johnson, we were told that it wouldn’t happen at the 2021 WrestleMania but that it was something they were shooting for in 2022, but that’s also 1,500 plans ago.

While the speculation of Brooklyn for Survivor Series isn’t the headline, it is worth noting that WWE has spent numerous weekends over the past decade at The Barclays Center for SummerSlam.

It wouldn’t be outside of the realm of possibility that they leverage this relationship to create an epic fan experience for this years Survivor Series.

More news on the possible WrestleMania match between The Rock and Roman Reigns is sure to come down the pike soon, so stay tuned!
