5 reasons why The Rock vs. Roman Reigns needs to happen at WrestleMania

#3 The Rock needs to return against Roman Reigns for one more match

Ever since jumping ship to Hollywood, The Rock has competed on a handful occasions in WWE. While he did win the WWE Championship off CM Punk a few years ago and competed against John Cena at WrestleMania, The Great One, more than anyone, deserves to end his run on a high note. Roman Reigns could be the one to help him with that final run.

As things stand, The Rock's last official match in WWE was in 2016 when he made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania 32, only to be interrupted by The Wyatt Family.

If that wasn't enough, The Rock switched to his wrestling gear and competed in a match against Erick Rowan, one that the former won within six seconds. The win meant that The Rock had registered the fastest win in WrestleMania history before announcing his retirement in August 2019.

Now surely one wouldn't be pleased with the fact that an eight-time WWE Champion's final match was a six-second squash match. In order to fix that, the perfect send-off for The Great One would be to bring him back for one final dance with his cousin Roman Reigns, of all people. The perfect farewell gift.
