Who was The Rock’s last WWE opponent? It’s NOT John Cena at WrestleMania 29
The Rock is set to make his comeback to the wrestling ring at WrestleMania 40, teaming up with Roman Reigns to face off against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a tag team match. This highly anticipated match will serve as the perfect finale for Night One of The Show of Shows, as the outcome will determine the stipulation for the main event of Night Two. As for what lies ahead for The American Nightmare and The Tribal Chief on Night Two, only time will tell.
Despite already appearing on the match-card for WrestleMania 29 and suffering a loss to John Cena, The Brahma Bull would still make another WrestleMania appearance. In an unexpected turn of events, The Great One had a spontaneous match at WrestleMania 32 against Erick Rowan.
At the event, Rock made a spectacular entrance into the arena alongside The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, wielding a flamethrower. He then took the opportunity to address the WWE Universe and announce that the attendance had broken records with over 100,000 passionate fans in attendance. However, The Wyatt Family soon interrupted the segment, leading to a heated verbal exchange and ultimately resulting in Rock issuing a challenge.
At WrestleMania, The People’s Champ defeated Erick Rowan in just six seconds, setting a new record for the shortest match in the event’s history. The Wyatt Family, angered by their humiliating loss, surrounded The Rock in an attempt to ambush him. Thankfully, John Cena rushed to the ring to aid The Rock in fending off The Wyatt Family. After the match, The Rock and Cena walked up the ramp together, with The Rock raising Cena’s hand in a show of respect.
Expert predicts potential injury risks for The Rock at WrestleMania 40
The People’s Champion has not been in the ring for quite some time. When a past superstar makes a comeback, WWE typically places them in a tag team match to prevent them from bearing all of the responsibility. It is also expected that The Tribal Chief will take on the majority of the workload for The Final Boss.
According to experienced wrestler Stevie Richards, The Rock will be entering The Show of Shows with a higher level of physicality than ever before. While he acknowledges the fans will enjoy seeing The Rock in action, Richards believes that Roman Reigns will be the driving force behind most of the match.
