WWE Rumor Roundup: Company rejects former Superstar's appeal to return, Roster members refuse to work with former World Champion- 2nd October 2019

#4. Roman Reigns comments on a possible match with The Rock

When we talk about dream matches, arguably there is no other match which is more anticipated that The Rock facing Roman Reigns. While the two are related to each other in real-life, a match against The Great One would be exactly the kind of rub that will elevate The Big Dog to the level that WWE has always wanted him to be at.

The Brahma Bull will finally be making a return to SmackDown on the season premiere of the blue brand on FOX this week. This would be the perfect opportunity for WWE to lay the groundwork for this match.

Here is what Roman Reigns said on GQ Sports’ ‘Actually Me’:

If it’s done right. Obviously, with the star that he is, where he is at in his career, it would be huge. It would be great. But, you know, we’re family, so it has to make sense. And free the guy up. Can we give him a break?! Can he take a day off?! If he can get a week off, we might be able to make it happen. So, doubtful.”
