‘The Rock Says Book That Sh*t’: Dwayne Johnson Wants a WrestleMania Match in Hollywood Next Year But Not Against His Cousin Roman Reigns

It’s been a long time since the WWE universe has seen “The Most Electrifying Man in the Sports Entertainment” in the ring. Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock is certainly the biggest superstar that has come out of the WWE. However, he hasn’t appeared in WWE in a while. The 10-time World Champion has finally made a suggestion that he will be making a comeback.

On October 4, 2019, The Rock made his last WWE appearance on SmackDown’s 20th Anniversary edition. Notably, he and Becky Lynch overcame Happy Corbin during his visit as Corbin attempted to overthrow them.

However, it now seems as though he will face Lynch rather than teaming up with her when he returns to the ring. During a recent live chat with Becky “The Man” Lynch and former WWE writer, Brian Gewirtz, The Rock proposed an idea about making a comeback.

The Instagram live was really intriguing, and it began with Lynch discussing the Gewirtz book. Nevertheless, it gained traction after The Rock said, “ROCK & BRIAN VS SETH & BECKY AT MANIA! BOOK THAT S**T!”

Lynch said she was ready to face The Rock as soon as she saw the message. “Alright, I’m down!” she said. The Rock is a legendary wrestler, so Lynch and Seth Rollins understandably became thrilled about the prospect of competing against him at WrestleMania. Considering The Rock’s enormous fan base.
