Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is receiving a ton of interest for an appearance at WrestleMania 43 in April 2027, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The Rock will reportedly receive the largest offer in professional wrestling history for WrestleMania 43.
The Rock appeared in a recent interview recentley with Raffi Boghosian and said, “Well, it’s always good” in response to his conversations for WrestleMania 43. Currently, it is unknown if The Rock will potentially make an appearance at the event or wrestle a match.
Potential Opponents
Roman Reigns
If The Rock returns to the ring, the most obvious choice is for him to wrestle his cousin, Roman Reigns. The Rock vs. Roman Reigns has been a dream match for many wrestling fans throughout the last few years. If WWE and Saudi Arabia can make this match happen, it has the potential to be one of the biggest matches in WWE history.
Cody Rhodes
The only other match that would make sense for The Rock is with Cody Rhodes. That is because the last time we saw The Rock was at the Elimination Chamber in 2025, where he beat down Rhodes alongside John Cena and Travis Scott. Although The Rock vs. Cody Rhodes wouldn’t be as big as the one against Reigns, it would still be a massive must-watch match.
When was The Rock’s last match?
The Rock’s last match was at WrestleMania XL, where he teamed with Roman Reigns to take on Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes. Technically, The Rock’s last singles match was against Erick Rowan at WrestleMania 32, but that one only lasted six seconds. The last time The Rock wrestled a legitimate one-on-one match was against John Cena at WrestleMania 29 in 2013.
