10 Best Ways To Use The Rock At WWE WrestleMania 33
4. Against Brock Lesnar
Rewind to SummerSlam 2002 and The Rock was doing the honourable thing. Putting over a young Brock Lesnar and endorsing him as the new WWE Champion, 'The Great One' bowed out following the pay-per-view headliner and once again retreated to Hollywood. Meanwhile, Lesnar became an even bigger star over the next decade.
It's likely Brock would have achieved success even without that match against The Rock, he's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of athlete. Nonetheless, there would still be sustained interest in a rematch, even though the last time both men locked horns was close to 15 years ago.
Lesnar may be out to avenge his loss to Bill Goldberg at Survivor Series, that's the most logical place for 'The Beast' at WrestleMania 33. Should Goldberg (for whatever reason) be unable to compete, The Rock is far from a terrible replacement.
In actual fact, there would be more excitement over that match than a Goldberg vs. Lesnar bout. Rock's celebrity is key in such exposure, although Brock himself has become a mainstream phenomenon for his success in UFC.
