WWE fans are eagerly waiting to see the feud between The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns and The Rock. Now, we got an update about the The Rock’s status for WWE Survivor Series, which would be the 25th anniversary of his WWE debut and feud with Roman Reigns.
On the recent edition of Mat Men Wrestling podcast, Andrew Zarian stated that The Rock will be in Australia during Survivor Series but he will be on the show via video appearance or something else planned by the company.
“Little update on The Rock – he’s apparently in Australia during Survivor Series. Now, does that mean he won’t be doing something at Survivor Series? They’re definitely gonna mention it. They’re definitely gonna talk about it. There will be maybe a video appearance or something that’s planned. But he’s not gonna be there,” Andrew Zarian said.
So, it seems that he might start the program with Roman Reigns at Survivor Series and that leads to match between them at WrestleMania 38. But Zarian further stated that several people in backstage seem adamant that this dream match should happen one year later at WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles.
“It really looks like the focus has shifted to moving a Roman and Rock match to LA (WrestleMania 39). I’ll say it this way, there are people that are adamant that it needs to take place in Los Angeles. They’re adamant. There are certain people that say, ‘No, this match should not happen at Dallas (WrestleMania 38), it should happen in LA,” Andrew Zarian added.
“There’s a lot of back-and-forth happening right now with this but, originally, this was happening. Multiple sources from in the company, out of the company, told me that the plan was this. Where it goes from here, we’ll find out,” said Andrew Zarian.
