For years on end, fans have been clamoring to see a showdown pitting The Rock with Roman Reigns. The Rock himself has stated in the past that he was quite close to battling his cousin on The Grandest Stage Of Them All. Tonight on RAW, the duo shared an emotional moment and hugged each other, making it known that they're still incredibly close.
For now, a match between these two top stars seems like a pipe dream unless one of them ends up turning on the other somewhere down the line. A match pitting these two men is bound to do massive business.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
