Major name has unfinished business with The Rock; open to face The Final Boss in WWE

The Rock's WWE return remains a huge question at this time, but one major name has some unfinished business with The Final Boss. The talent is open to returning to face Rocky in a one-on-one bout.

In January 2024, Jinder Mahal cut a promo on Monday Night RAW when The Rock returned to the Stamford-based promotion. While the Modern Day Maharaja did his best, he could not handle a People's Elbow and was humiliated by The Brahma Bull.

The 39-year-old star is a major name in professional wrestling, as he's a former WWE Champion and the only Indian-born former United States Champion in the promotion's history. Unfortunately, he, along with Indus Sher, was released from the Stamford-based promotion after WrestleMania XL.

On TMZ's Inside The Ring, the hosts asked Mahal, now known as Raj Dhesi, if he would go back to the Stamford-based promotion to settle his unfinished business with The Rock in a one-on-one match. The former world champion agreed he would be down for a return and a match against The Final Boss.

"Yeah, I'll definitely take him. Yeah, I'll take it up. I feel like I'll out-promo The Rock," Mahal said. (From 24:02 to 24:07)

Will Jinder Mahal return to WWE for a match against The Rock?

The abovementioned segment on Monday Night RAW opened the door for a potential match between The Final Boss and Jinder Mahal in the Stamford-based promotion. While it's highly unlikely that The Modern Day Maharaja would get a match with Rocky, he can return to the company in the future.

Raj Dhesi thinks a return is possible, but he cannot retire in the Stamford-based promotion. In an interview with PWInsider, Dhesi addressed the possibility of in-ring retirement, as he's close to reaching 40. The former WWE and United States Champion said he would probably finish his career on the independent circuit.

The 39-year-old added that he was destined to finish his career on the independent circuit, as that was where he started his career. It'll be interesting to see if he ever returns to the Stamford-based promotion.
