WWE Rumor Roundup: Several stars upset after risky new decision, Another RAW Superstar out injured and more - 2nd October 2020

The Rock's WWE return is 'complicated'

The Rock and Roman Reigns

The Rock vs Roman Reigns is speculated for WrestleMania 37, and both of them have been talking about it. The match is something the WWE Universe would love to see, but things are not as simple as they sound.

In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reports that there is one big complication in the match taking place. He claims that WWE are unwilling to have The Rock return to the ring in an empty arena.

Roman Reigns was asked about the possible match against The Rock on Complex's Load Management podcast, he said:

"I think I'm the guy. If there is anybody that he would feel comfortable with in the ring, and have the proper build up and can rise to that occasion, there's no doubt I'm the guy. We will definitely have to crack a lot of eggs to get to that. That's just good TV. Going forward and building a really dominant bad guy within myself and here comes the astronomical superstar, there has never been a guy on his level. You would have to build that villain to get to that point." H/t WrestlingNews.co

As things stand, it looks like the pandemic situation will play the biggest role in The Rock's return to the WWE ring more than anything else.
