5 reasons WWE wants The Rock on SmackDown Live's FOX debut

#1 A possible tease

We might get this match in the near future

Remember last year's SmackDown 1000 episode? The show saw the reunion of one of the most dominant factions in WWE history, Evolution. It also teased a future match between Triple H and Batista. The bout eventually took place at WrestleMania 35, with Triple H finally managing to defeat Batista in a one-on-one match.

What if WWE wants to do something similar with The Rock? A huge match could be teased on the show, leading to a slow-burn buildup and an eventual match at WrestleMania 36. WWE has previously teased a match between The Rock and Roman Reigns. Reigns and The Rock would be on the same show that night, and a confrontation between the two is a possibility if The Rock manages to take out a few dates for the rivalry. Reigns vs The Rock is a dream match fans would love to see, and the FOX debut of SmackDown Live would be a perfect place to kick off the feud.
