While speaking on the #91 edition of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, Matt Hardy claimed that The Rock vs. Reigns would be huge if it materializes. He added that it would lead to a very successful WrestleMania. Stating that Johnson is still interested in the bout, he believes that there is a high chance of the match happening next year.
He said, “I don’t know if the die-hard wrestling fans are going to get the match they would want, but I think it’s going to be a huge spectacle. I think it’s going to be a match that is going to have casual fans extremely interested in and they are going to want to tune in and watch it.”
He added that the match is not going to interest wrestling fans, but non-wrestling fans as well. Johnson is a huge star outside of WWE, which is going to bring a lot more eyes to the bout. Hardy claims that even casual fans would be dying to see the match take place. Other legends, like Hulk Hogan, also share the same thought.
