Dwayne Johnson, also known as "The Rock," dropped the WWE Championship to John Cena in 2013 at WrestleMania 29, then dedicated himself purely to his Hollywood career, and is now the highest-paid actor. He could, however, return for one final fight at WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles. At least, that is the plan of WWE, which wants to pit The Rock against Roman Reigns in what would be Johnson's final match. This possibility has been building for a long time but is finally becoming a reality.
The odds for a potential dream match between Roman Reigns and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson have already been released by some sportsbooks as there is an excitement about it possibly happening. Online sports betting at Goldenbet is one of the most popular locations for those who wish to bet on the WWE, as they continue to provide a range of competitive odds and markets for fans who like to wager on the in-ring action.
Is Roman Reigns the right opponent?
It is no secret that the WWE had been considering a match between Reigns and The Rock for a very long time. However, it is something that has not yet been possible to do, with the legend having been busy with Hollywood, thus leaving Reigns to feud with Brock Lesnar.
Reigns, though, is a polarizing character, and with him as a heel, many feel it would be the right time for Rocky to return to the ring for another “final time”.
Could The Rock compete against Brock Lesnar?
There are some that have suggested that if a match with Reigns is not possible, or they perhaps look for an alternative, then Lesnar could be the ideal opponent for The Rock; especially as the pair have history.
Rock gave up his WWE title belt 20 years ago to Lesnar, as “The Beast” became the youngest champion in the WWE at the time ever.
Why could this be The Rock's final match?
Although as we know it is important to never say never, with The Rock being 50, it would seem highly unlikely that we will see him in the ring too often again, thus making this a potential final fight if it were to go ahead. Of course, his career as a Hollywood superstar has taken off and taken him to new heights, therefore he may not want to risk an injury that stops him from achieving further stardom on the big screen.
At 50, The Rock's Hollywood career has reached its pinnacle, and he is more likely to retire from a sport that requires extensive physical labor. So, if the 'Brahma Bull' does make a comeback, it may be for his final match, and there are many that feel Reigns or Lesnar would certainly be the best options for him.
Conclusion
The Rock has been one of the most popular WWE superstars in recent years, and he might be making a comeback for one last match. Fans believe it would be a fantastic match, and fans hope the Rock returns to the ring soon.
