10 Dream Matches If The Rock Ever Returns To WWE
9. Matt Riddle
Going into the more interesting stuff, how about the Original Bro (sorry Booker) going up against the Rock. Just imagine the promos and segments we could get out of this? The Rock ripping the laid back, flip flop tossing Riddle apart, while Matt himself just gives it a casual shrug.
The storyline may run the risk of becoming a bit clichéd. There would be an obvious scent of the legends vs the hungry young talent trope hanging over it. But given the awesome character work of Riddle, they will almost certainly be able to tell a rich story that doesn’t lean too heavily on the young blood vs veteran angle.
And make no mistake the match itself will rule. Riddle can absolutely beat the Hollywood daylights out of Rock with vicious kicking and knee strikes, before the Man Who Smells Things can be make his big blockbuster comeback.
