5 Dream WWE Matches Even Saudi Arabia (Probably) Can't Even Afford

Surprisingly, 'The Showstopper' and 'The Great One' never met in a singles contest throughout their illustrious careers - hence why it's often been hoped for by fans. The chances of it ever manifesting into reality are slim to none, however, with a myriad of reasons why all the money in the world wouldn't even be enough for these two to lock horns.

When 'The Heartbreak Kid' was in his prime, 'The People's Champ' was yet to become the champ of anything - still a young, fresh faced rookie, working his way up through the ranks. By the time 'The Brahma Bull' became the megastar we all know him as today, 'The Boy Toy' had been put on the shelf with a critical back injury. Once 'HBK' had finally made his long anticipated return, 'The Most Electrifying Man In Sports Entertainment' was already a part timer, more focused on his Hollywood career than his pro-wrestling one.

Despite a tease where The Rock was on the receiving end of sweet chin music from 'Mr. WrestleMania' in a special guest referee role, it seemed destined for them to never go one on one. But there might be more to it than that. The rumours go that Shawn had once offended Dwayne's mother backstage, something Johnson never forgot. That, combined with the fact The Rock wouldn't want to tarnish his good standing in Tinsel Town by associating with Saudi Arabia, makes it an almost a near certainty that this bout will never take place.
