Dwayne Johnson, aka "The Rock," and Roman Reigns are two of the biggest World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstars and their fans will be ecstatic to hear that the two celebrity wrestlers will be coming face-to-face for a match this year.
The development was announced after Cody Rhodes won the 2024 Men's Royal Rumble match, earning him a world championship match at WrestleMania XL, Cage Side Seats reported.
Rhodes, who is only the fourth player to win two championships in a row, appeared at the Friday Night Smackdown this week to announce who he’ll be challenging for WrestleMania.
The winner of the Royal Rumble is given the honour of choosing his opponent in the Wrestlemania match.
It was highly expected that Rhodes would choose Reigns to compete against, as the latter holds the WWE Universal Championship title, and defeating him would mean winning the title.
However, in a surprising turn of events, Rhodes said he decided against fighting Reign in this wrestle mania, after discussing it with several people.
"While I still plan on finishing the story, it won’t happen at WrestleMania. And that’s because another man is going to be there," he added.
As he announced, The Rock walked out, shook hands with Rhodes, and turned to face Reigns standing across. The audience turned wild as the two guys stepped closer to each other and engaged in a stare-down.
Every spectator in the arena was in awe of the two biggest stars sharing the same rink, and the atmosphere became electrifying.
