If The Rock does indeed work WrestleMania this year, there's really only two realistic options for him. Brock Lesnar would be the opponent that would likely generate the most interest from mainstream media, as well as pro-wrestling fans because of their brief history going back to last decade. Lesnar became the youngest WWE Champion in history by soundly defeating The Rock at SummerSlam over 13 years ago. Rock was making the transition into Hollywood at that point in his career and was just one of the future legends that Lesnar defeated on his way to the top. Now that Rock has come back to WWE on a pseudo part-time basis (and even that's being generous), a rematch with Brock would be sure to generate headlines all over the world. Fans may remember a tease from a couple years back where Lesnar went rampaging through WWE Headquarters in Stamford, CT and gave a quick stare and a chuckle at a huge poster featuring The Rock that hung on the wall. This match was rumored to have been originally planned for WrestleMania XXX but because of The Rock's injuries from 29 and the impact on his acting career, was taken off the board. If the rumors are true, Dwayne Johnson had a difficult time getting insured for any upcoming matches in WWE so it would be a bit surprising to see him step into the ring with the physical beast that is Brock Lesnar. Because of this, if Rock does wrestle, he may choose an opponent that would be a bit less physical...
