6 Reasons The Rock Vs Rusev Must Happen At WrestleMania 31

4. It Allows Celebrities And WWE Legends To Get Involved

Ever since Cyndi Lauper's appearance at WrestleMania I, the WWE have been eager to push the event as a spectacle larger than wrestling itself. They usually achieve this through the inclusion of celebrities, while also bringing in legendary figures from their own past to further cement the PPV's legacy. A Rock vs Rusev match would provide the company with a fantastic opportunity to do so - Johnson is probably the best-positioned worker in WWE history in terms of Hollywood connections. He would likely have little trouble convincing some big-name stars to associate with the event. Similarly, such a match opens the door for certain WrestleMania legends to make an appearance. Can you imagine the excitement if, in the weeks building up to 'Mania, Rusev announced that he would have a legendary foreign heel such as Nikolai Volkoff in his corner...only for Rocky to draft in Hulk Hogan in response.
