Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson expressed his desire to return to the WWE ring during the premiere of his latest movie Skyscraper. The Hollywood A-lister told WWE's Cathy Kelley that "he can't wait to return inside a WWE ring" and we as a fan couldn't be more pleased to hear that.

The last time Fans saw The Rock Compete inside the squared ring was at Wrestlemania 32 in a 9 Second Match against Eric Rowan.

Since then, The Rock has been out smashing records and he became one of the most successful actor in Hollywood with the amount of charisma and the larger than life persona. WWE really wants The Rock to appear and have a match at WrestleMania 35.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Let's take a look at 5 WWE wrestlers that can put on a great match with ' The most electrifying man in sports entertainment ' at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

#5 Roman Reigns

It seems like there's nothing in the world right now that could get Roman Reigns over as a babyface. So surely the best move at this point would be for the company to finally turn the Big Dog heel and there's no better way of doing that than against his own family.

Seeing reigns stick out the rock would be a huge deal and could lead to a mega match between them both at Wrestlemania. WWE is going to want Roman in one of the Wrestlemania's big matches, so why not place him against a great one.

If Roman was able to show a cockier side believing that the rock has passed it then this is something that fans could really get behind and Reigns is likely someone that the Rock would be happy to have his final match with as well

#4 Tommaso Ciampa

By the time WrestleMania 35 rolls around there's a good chance that Tommaso Ciampa will be on the main roster. The chances are that this will be the last time the rock wrestles with his busy schedule so it would make sense for him to put someone over who's considering the future of this business.

Tommaso Ciampa has an incredibly bright future and is the absolute best heel around right now. Giving him this moment would establish him on the main roster as a major main event level talent something WWE needs right now.

#3 AJ Styles

AJ Styles is certainly one of the most popular wrestlers on the roster right now. So many even say he is a modern-day people's champion just like the rock used to be. so how cool would it be to create this dream match for fans.

WWE has a lot of options in terms of how they tell the story and there's no doubt that the in ring quality would be the highest order.

#2 Samoa Joe

If WWE wants someone established to face the Rock then Samoa Joe would certainly be a perfect choice for an opponent in his eventual return match.

Samoa Joe is a natural heel and his combat psychotic attitude would work greatly against the Rocks over the top personality.

Even that Joe never had a Wrestlemania match this would also be a good way for WWE to reward him for all of his hard work since joining the company giving him his debut on the grandest stage of them all against the Rock.

#1 Brock Lesnar

In terms of dream matches and star power the absolute biggest match at its disposal will be putting the Rock against Brock Lesnar, something that was actually meant to happen several years ago.

Due to injuries that The Rock suffered against John Cena, the match never took place but there have already been rumblings that this is what Vince McMahon wants to happen Wrestlemania 35.
