Rock vs. Roman Reign?

[BØRNS]

Do you think we'll ever see it? They're both family, and already have some history in the ring. Remember when the Shield triple-powerbombed Rock on the Raw before the Royal Rumble '13? When Roman Reigns is free from the Shield and (expectedly) gets a main-event push, do you see Rock coming back to challenge him? Maybe tagging for a couple matches? Maybe doing something with the Usos, too? I'm no Rock fan, but do you think this would be a unique opportunity for both? What do you think?

The Uso's will run over Reigns and claim that they did it for da Rock.

I'd say they should do that at Mania 31 instead of Rock vs Brock and have Brock face Cesaro.

If we're talking "Passing the torch" in WWE...forget Rock's match with Cena...Rock needs to have one with Reigns. I buy that as a "passing to the next generation" much MUCH more...

Rock/Reigns is a WM dream match for me.

[The Yes Man]

It'd suck. Any time Reigns has had a singles match, it's been terrible. The matches with Punk and Wyatt were terrible. He also seems to believe that yelling equals a good promo. Not to mention both Ambrose and Rollins look more impressive when they take the vest off. But of course, Reigns does a cool Speer and a superman punch so he's awesome.

So no, I hope this doesn't happen.

NO NO NO. I wouldn't see rock which could possibly could be his last match against reigns when id rather see him fight brock or taker whom ever

I'd have to disagree with that. He's had some really good quips on the mic, especially when he came off as a soft-spoken ass kicker (like what he said to Piper back on Old-School Raw).

But yeah, a match between the two would be average at best.

Rock vs Reigns at Wrestlemania 31 would be awesome, it would totally make Reigns a bigger star.

[The Kevstaaa]

I like Roman Reigns, not as much as the other two members of the Shield, but I don't know if this will ever happen. The Rock might only do WrestleManias from here on out and they'll want to save him for huge matches like Brock Lesnar or even a third battle with Cena.

I would like it though, as it would be huge for Reigns. Especially considering the family lineage.

I like Reigns, but mostly because Rollins and Ambrose hide his weaknesses. When Reigns is really alone, those weaknesses are going to shine through real quick.

[Word™]

Dwayne I think would absolutely come back to help put Roman over.. But Roman has many steps to climb before this is even a discussion. I'm talking years down the road.

Maybe someday.

It depends on how Reigns does on his own.

YES MAKE IT HAPPEN THIS IS MY DREAM MATCH RIGHT HERE!!!!

[Booger Red]

Eh, I'm not so sure if I would want to see Rock/Reigns. Reigns, in my opinion, hasn't really delivered in the ring on his own, apart from his signature moves; Rock had a good match with Cena at WrestleMania XXVIII, but his matches with Punk were above average and the rematch with Cena sucked.

Then again, there have been matches where two guys who looked incapable of having a good match together ended up having really good matches, like Warrior and Hogan at WM VI, and John Cena and Batista with their match at SummerSlam in 2008 and their feud in 2010 over the WWE Championship.


It's quite obvious that out of the three members of The Shield, WWE sees Roman as the guy with the most potential to be a top-tier main event star in the company. If Rock/Reigns were to happen at WrestleMania, it will most likely occur due to timing, whether within the next couple of years, Roman Reigns is in the upper mid-card, occasional main event spot.

[King Bálor (CM)™]

Would much rather see Reigns/Rock tag than a Reigns/Rock match. Simple reason is Reigns isnt ready for that rub from The Rock and by the time he is....Rock's ring days will be over.

[savage]

To be honest, Rock is one of the few guys I wouldn't care to see Reigns face.

[JWC]

Reigns would have to stop the crossfit first & hop on some tren, because without that, the rock would dwarf reigns in size.

[skribbel24]

I doubt we will see this soon, but it should be an epic match.

[Slim]

Yes, but I want Reigns vs Lesnar first.
