Bengaluru, Oct 11: WWE starts planning with the Wrestlemania main event much before its actual date. Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns in New Orleans kept rumour mill buzzing one year before the show. The same might happen this year again. He is the franchise player of the company whom they just can't stop giving a push.
Reports are doing the rounds for quite some time about The Rock coming back to WWE programming. This will not be for a one-off night but to set up a match in future. Wrestlemania 35 will be hosted at MetLife Stadium in New York City in 2019. This is the same venue where The Rock was at the main event five years ago and he might intend to compete in the same arena.
So, WWE officials are trying hard to make this a reality in due course. The Rock will have to take some time out from his busy Hollywood schedule in order to do so. He is yet to give a positive nod to Vince McMahon about a future appearance. We might get a hint of the future happenings when The Brahma Bull shows for Smackdown 1000 on October 2018.
It should also be noted that The Rock is currently the favorite to win the Royal Rumble 2019 match. This will clear his road in becoming the main event of Wrestlemania. Roman Reigns, on the other hand, will be holding the Universal Championship all the way to the biggest event of the year only to get his cousin as the toughest challenge.
