With the return of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to WWE, and his joining the Board of Directors of parent company TKO Group Holdings in January, a lot more attention has been drawn to the level of involvement he has.
Dave Meltzer recently reported on the Wrestling Observer that there is talk of a match between The Rock and Roman Reigns, originally teased for WrestleMania, could potentially be moved to WWE’s next Saudi Arabia show on 5/25.
Providing clarity on the matter, Meltzer states per F4WOnline:
When asking if Rock will be working that show, we’re told there are a lot of variables in play and a variety of factors but obviously the company would like it if he would.
But while nothing is set in stone, the belief as of right now is that Mania won’t be his only match in 2024 and there is definitely a push to get him to work at least one Saudi Arabia event this year.
In addition, Fightful Select has reported that Johnson has input on who will be inducted into this year’s WWE Hall of Fame, though it is unclear if this impacts names already announced such as Paul Heyman, Bull Nakano, and the U.S. Express, or names yet to be announced.
A source informed Fightful that it would be evident “if the planned inductees are revealed as scheduled.”
