WWE WrestleMania 33: 7 Potential Replacements For Seth Rollins
4. The Rock
Moving away from the current roster, The Rock vs. Triple H is a one-on-one WrestleMania meeting that we’ve been waiting to see for almost two decades now.
It almost took place at the 2000 event, but instead the match became a cumbersome Fatal 4-Way bout involving the Big Show and Mick Foley. As recently as 2014 though, the rivalry was revisited for SmackDown’s 15th Anniversary show and again in a segment with Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 31.
Long story short: the history is there and so’s the interest. The only question pertains to whether or not The Rock would be able to get in ring-shape for a match at such short notice. Then again, this is The Rock. He seems to be in decent enough shape as it is...
Of course, this match in 2017 wouldn’t be anywhere near as good as it might have been if they’d met during the height of the Attitude Era, but of all the potential uses of part-time stars at WrestleMania, few would be able to compete with the nostalgia value of this one.
