Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson could agree facing Roman Reigns outside of WrestleMania on one condition: Reports
The WWE Universe is perplexed over the subject pertaining to the perfect destination for Roman Reigns vs. The Rock.

After Paul Heyman implicitly addressed The Rock‘s subtle jab at Roman Reigns on SmackDown, no one can deny that their match is happening. That’s not even an apple of discord anymore. But what has actually divided the WWE Universe ever since The Great One dropped that bombshell on Raw: Day 1 is where this dream match should take place.
Some believe a showdown of such magnitude must take center stage at WrestleMania. However, that might preclude Cody Rhodes’ quest to finish his story. Now, even though WWE has stayed tight-lipped on the matter, Dave Meltzer of WON has professed his two cents on the entire situation. He alluded to the fact that Dwayne Johnson might skip battling his cousin at WrestleMania if there’s a silver lining past that. What does that mean?
Well, Dave hinted that The Rock could agree to make his in-ring return on a Saudi Arabia PLE rather than the wrestling grandiose in Philadelphia. It has not been a matter of covertness how much money WWE gets through its decade-long agreement with the Saudi Arabia Sports Authority. So, if the paycheck is bigger than he would get bustling at Mania, The Brahma Bull may lean towards the Middle East.
And for those concerned about what that might do to his reputation in Hollywood, Meltzer clarified that it may not be an encumbrance anymore. However, amidst this, a far more real possibility calls for Reigns vs. Rock to happen in Perth at the Elimination Chamber. Not to forget that the tourism officials lodged a bid to lure The Rock to the PLE.
How Roman Reigns has reacted to The Rock’s challenge?
This week on SmackDown, the first question Roman Reigns ran into after emerging from his limousine was his reaction to The Rock’s return. However, instead of replying to his cousin’s groundbreaking tease, Reigns just chuckled and walked away with Paul Heyman.
Later on, The Wiseman did address The Rock. He denied The Brahma Bull an entry to The Island of Relevancy and said that the Hollywood actor is just trying to take a shortcut. Talking a bit about the numbers, The Great One’s unannounced appearance broke WWE’s all-time social media record, having amassed 171 million views.
Amazing stuff. This is all thanks to the people. They break records, not me. I just try and look cool, not screw up and not cuss too much. #peopleschampDwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson on X
Reacting to yet another feather in his cap, The People’s Champ said that he was not the one who broke the record; instead, it was the fans. With his showdown against Roman Reigns almost inevitable, the WWE Universe looks forward to having The Rock back as soon as he can.
