Understanding WrestleMania 40 rumors – will Roman Reigns and The Rock finally collide in the ring?

The Rock’s Return Sparks Speculation: Will Roman Reigns Face The People’s Champion at WrestleMania 40?

In the realm of WWE, the much-anticipated dream match between Roman Reigns and The Rock has taken an intriguing turn with the electrifying return of The People’s Champion at Raw Day 1. However, amidst the heightened excitement, reports indicate that the Australian government’s interest in The Rock’s participation in Elimination Chamber 2024 adds an element of uncertainty to the potential showdown against Roman Reigns.

On the Gigantic Pop Podcast, wrestling enthusiasts Matt Morgan and Raj Giri engage in a discussion about the imminent clash between Roman Reigns and The Rock, contemplating whether the spectacle will unfold at WrestleMania 40 or the Elimination Chamber. Giri’s confidence in the inevitability of the match leans towards the grandeur of WrestleMania 40, a sentiment echoed by Matt Morgan, who deems it the ideal stage for this monumental confrontation.

While Matt Morgan eagerly anticipates the realization of the dream match, he also expresses a desire to see Cody Rhodes conclude his WWE narrative in a compelling manner. Morgan envisions a scenario where Roman Reigns faces The Rock at WrestleMania 40, followed by Reigns relinquishing his title to The American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.

In Morgan’s words:

“Roman Reigns should undoubtedly face The Rock at WrestleMania 40. However, I believe that afterward, Cody Rhodes must bring his story to a fitting end. It would be a fitting scenario for Rhodes to claim the championship at the subsequent WrestleMania or another premium live event.”

Reflecting on Cody Rhodes’ journey, including his triumph as the Royal Rumble winner in 2023, a headline clash with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39, and a memorable feud with Brock Lesnar, the narrative continues with an ongoing storyline involving Shinsuke Nakamura. As the WWE universe eagerly anticipates the unfolding chapters, the prospect of Roman Reigns vs. The Rock remains tantalizing, with fans yearning for an epic encounter on the grand stage of WrestleMania 40.
