WWE has been trying to make The Rock vs. Roman Reigns happen for years, but it hasn’t happened yet.
In September, The Rock revealed on the Pat McAfee Show that the match was set for WrestleMania 39. He had a handshake deal after a meeting with WWE in LA. However, they couldn’t come up with the exact idea they wanted, so they put the talks on hold. The Rock said he was willing to face Reigns at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia next year.
Justin Barrasso of SI.com reported today that “the decision about Wrestlemania will not be The Rock’s to make, nor is the main event even a topic of substance,” and there are currently no plans for it to happen.
However, it’s uncertain if he would accept the match due to his busy schedule with the XFL, movie career, and other business ventures.

The Rock vs. Roman Reigns: Will the Dream Match Finally Happen?
For years, WWE fans have been eagerly anticipating a showdown between two of the biggest stars in professional wrestling: The Rock and Roman Reigns. The idea of these two powerhouses facing off in the ring has been a topic of speculation and excitement. However, despite the hype, the match has yet to materialize.
In a recent interview on the Pat McAfee Show, The Rock himself confirmed that the match was set for WrestleMania 39. He revealed that after a meeting with WWE in Los Angeles, a handshake deal was made. However, they couldn’t come up with the exact idea they wanted for the match, so the talks were put on hold. The Rock expressed his willingness to face Reigns at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia next year instead.
Unfortunately for fans, it seems that the decision about WrestleMania and the main event is not in The Rock’s hands. According to Justin Barrasso of SI.com, there are currently no plans for the dream match to happen. He stated that “the decision about Wrestlemania will not be The Rock’s to make, nor is the main event even a topic of substance.”
One of the main obstacles to making this match a reality is The Rock’s busy schedule. Apart from his wrestling commitments, he is also involved in other ventures such as the XFL and his successful movie career. Balancing all these commitments might make it challenging for him to find the time to prepare for a high-profile wrestling match.
While fans may be disappointed by this news, it’s important to remember that plans can change in the world of professional wrestling. The Rock has always been open to returning to WWE and has made several appearances in recent years. So, there is still hope that this dream match could happen in the future.
