Rumblings had been going around about whether WWE star Roman Reigns and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson could face-off in this year’s WrestleMania, but a recent report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter’s Dave Meltzer said the movie star has suggested he wouldn’t be ring ready in time for the April showdown.
Reigns addressed the speculation while on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon this week, acknowledging how “there’s been a huge buzz on that for a long time now.”
“But it’s really picked up in the past couple of years. I believe he just came out with a statement saying he’s not going to be ready in time, which that’s the face everyone’s making, like, ‘Hold on, this guy trains every single day. He’s huge,’” Reigns said to Fallon.
