Over the last six months or so, Hollywood mega-star Dwayne Johnson has been the subject of persistent rumors about a possible return to WWE. On the surface, the whispers made a lot of sense given The Rock’s real life cousins, Roman Reigns, The Usos and Solo Sikoa, are now main event talent and currently involved in a plotline about family loyalty and who sits at the head of the table. Fans were really fired up about seeing The People’s Champion in the ring again, but both The Royal Rumble and WrestleMania came and went without an appearance. Now reports have emerged that he may be open to doing something a year from now at WrestleMania 40, and the collective response from the wrestling community has mostly been a mix of pessimism, annoyance and indifference.
