As WrestleMania XL came to a close, fans were left stunned as The Great One, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, turned heel and joined forces with The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns.
The move marked a significant shift in the WWE terrain, with many speculating about the implications for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. According to reports, there were initially plans for The Rock to defeat Roman Reigns and claim the title, only to relinquish it and return to Hollywood as the self-proclaimed “People’s Champion.”
Ringside News has corroborated these claims, revealing that the idea originated from The Rock’s camp and was considered by WWE officials. While it is unclear who specifically pitched the concept, the outcome would have seen The Rock emerge victorious and then pass on the title to Roman Reigns.
The recent events on Monday Night RAW saw The Rock confront Cody Rhodes, warning him that he will be coming for him when he returns. This development has sparked speculation about the future of The Rock’s storyline, with some believing that he may return to feud with Roman Reigns once again.
In an intriguing twist, former WWE manager Dutch Mantell recently proposed a new storyline featuring The Rock and Roman Reigns taking on Tama Tonga and Solo Sikoa of The Bloodline. According to Mantell, this match would be the culmination of a tag team feud that begins at WWE Backlash, where Randy Orton and Kevin Owens will face off against the duo.
Mantell’s vision sees The Bloodline emerging victorious at Backlash, only to set the stage for a showdown with The Rock and Roman Reigns in a future tag team match. This would allow The Bloodline to look strong going into the match, ensuring that the outcome is unpredictable and exciting.
As WWE fans await the return of Roman Reigns and The Rock’s next move, one thing is clear: the WWE terrain has changed dramatically, and the possibilities are endless. Will we see a rematch between The Great One and The Tribal Chief? Only time will tell, but with The Bloodline in the mix, it’s shaping up to be an unforgettable year in professional wrestling.
