WWE may be planning to have The Rock be the last man standing at next year’s Royal Rumble. Ever since the company announced WrestleMania 39 would be held in California in April 2023, the home of Hollywood, fans have mulled over the possibility of ‘The Great One’ wrestling at the show, specifically against cousin Roman Reigns.
The prospect of the pair tussling for the undisputed WWE Undisputed Universal title at the most prestigious and iconic show is a match made in heaven. The 50-year-old winning the exciting and highly-anticipated 30-man January match to earn a shot at the ‘The Tribal Chief’ seems like the easiest way to make the match a reality.
However, this all depends on The Rock's hectic movie schedule and according to this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter , Dave Meltzer notes that his sources have only acknowledged an internal rumour about “pie-in-the-sky” plans for The Rock. “The idea was being talked about behind-the-scenes, but as best we can tell, while rumours certainly exist within the company, as far as those who would be in a position to know, there is no real answer," he said.
