WWE Raw Reunion: 5 ways The Rock could get involved

#4 Tease a future match against Brock Lesnar

Following his defeat against John Cena at WrestleMania 29, the next obvious opponent for The Rock in WWE appeared to be Brock Lesnar.

“The Great One” even tweeted three months before WrestleMania 30, where Lesnar broke The Undertaker’s undefeated streak, that he was originally supposed to face “The Beast” at the event.

Between Vince, Brock & myself our Wrestlemania 30 plan was ROCK vs BROCK. No plans now for 30 but possibly WM 31. #RockTalk @_JordanMayoral

The match did not come to fruition, of course, but it seems that The Rock is still keen to go one-on-one with the former UFC star one day, as he name-checked his former rival at a Comic Con Q&A in November 2017 as somebody who he would be willing to face if he ever returned to WWE.

Given that Universal champion Lesnar is being featured in a prominent role on WWE programming right now, he is bound to make a big impression at Raw Reunion, so this episode seems as good a time as any to build Brock vs. Rock if WWE is still planning to hold the match one day.
