Dwayne Johnson last wrestled a match at WrestleMania 32 against Erick Rowan. He won in six seconds and set a WrestleMania record. Post that, Dwayne has made some sporadic appearances on the WWE weekly TV shows, most notably on SmackDown in 2019, where he shared the ring with Corbin and Becky Lynch.
Since Roman Reigns returned and became ‘The Tribal Chief’, WWE has frequently teased The Rock’s return as ‘The Head of the Table’s next opponent. Moreover, Dwayne Johnson has also called his potential match with Roman a blockbuster, claiming that he is also interested in a WWE return.
