20 WWE WrestleMania Matches We Almost Got (And Why We Didn't)
10. The Rock Vs. Brock Lesnar - WrestleMania XXX
The Rock & Brock Connection are no strangers to each other inside the ring. At Summerslam 2002, Brock Lesnar defeated the Great One to win his first WWE Championship. 12 years later, the plan was for the pair to meet again, this time at WrestleMania XXX.
Following his loss to John Cena at WrestleMania 29, the Rock was set to call out Lesnar on the next night's Raw and set up a year long storyline, leading to the clash of titans at the next year's show.
There was also a rumour that the match was going to happen at Mania 29 but WWE had the Twice in a Lifetime match already in the works.
Why didn't it happen?
During the match with Cena, Dwayne suffered a serious pelvis injury and required immediate treatment, therefore the setup on Raw was off. WWE were still hopeful that the match would take place but Rock's movie career was so massive at that point, there was just no time to set up anything meaningful.
The Brahma Bull did appear at the show alongside Steve Austin & Hulk Hogan, while Brock fought the Undertaker, handing him his first loss at the event.
