The Rock has always stood out as a "final boss" of sorts for Roman Reigns. WWE has been chasing that dream match for a few years now, and hopes remain high they'll finally put the pieces together in time for WrestleMania XL. There, "Rocky" chants will light up Philly and Roman will be 100% heel.

Well erm...about that.

Reigns has been hearing a few sprinkles of adulation throughout this entire Bloodline drama, and Philadelphia is a rowdy wrestling market. They might reject Hollywood, boo Dwayne Johnson and embrace Roman as their chosen one come 'Mania. That'd throw the whole story WWE surely plans to tell out of whack.

It'd suck if Philly rebelled and didn't let The Bloodline's natural conclusion play out properly, but WWE isn't actually in control of how people respond on the night. The knives would be out for Dwayne if things didn't go smoothly on night one, put it that way.
