It will be a blockbuster match if Roman Reigns is to take on his cousin Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson at WrestleMania 37. It will be a treat for fans that have been waiting for this matchup for a long time. It will also be wonderful for WWE’s business. The Rock sparked this conversation when speaking to Hiram Garcia on his YouTube channel, he said he would be open to a match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 37.
In a video posted on Twitter, the former WWE champion said the decision would be great in terms of box-office draw. “(It) feels like the one (opponent) that would make sense would be Roman,” said DJ. He added that he would be honoured to go back to WWE and share the ring with Roman. He even said that he “would be honoured to have him (Roman) raise his hand in that one.”
That dialogue was bound to create hype. The idea got a further push after the official handle of WWE on BT Sport posted about the possible matchup. The post read, “Okay, it is official. We are fully onboard the hype train for @TheRock vs. @WWERomanReigns at WrestleMania.”
