Rumor Roundup: WWE’s Back-Up Plan For The Rock, Possible WWE Main Roster Call-Ups, More

1) WWE’s Back-Up Plan For The Rock

According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE has a back-up plan for The Rock at Wrestlemania 38. This will be for if The Rock is not able to face Roman Reigns in a singles match.

The back-up plan is for The Rock and a member of The Usos vs Roman Reigns and a member of The Usos in a tag team bout. Here is what Meltzer wrote:

One idea that has been talked about, as the goal is Reigns and Rock in Dallas for the 2022 Mania, is that if concessions have to be made regarding Rock and movies and injury fears, that they do Reigns and an Uso vs. Rock and an Uso, so Rock can be protected from doing too much and it keeps it all in the family with the idea and Rock and Reigns as who is really the tribal chief. Obviously the singles match is the preferred match but any involvement of Rock is preferred over him not doing the show

My Take:

  • The singles match would be amazing but the tag team match could also be fun. I will take anything from The Rock at this point.
