Fans have been salivating over thoughts of a clash between The Rock and Roman Reigns since the 'Tribal Chief' turned heel in the summer of 2020. Sure, some fancied it before that, but Roman's transformation into the best all-rounder in the biz has upped the anticipation.

Of course, it can only happen if Rocky's Hollywood schedule isn't too busy, and this dude doesn't have a lot of spare time on his hands. Squeezing WWE in will only work for The Rock if it doesn't interfere with his day job, and that's just the way it is. Still, the match must happen before it's too late.

The Rock is almost an end of game boss for Reigns' heel character.

That's why he's here - this writer still expects that WWE will bend over backwards to bring Rocky "back home" for "one more match". Yes, they'll use all of that terminology and pretend this is the last hurrah for one of their most famous sons.

It won't be, but it'd be damn exciting regardless.
