NEW DELHI: Being a pivotal member of the TKO board, The Rock is anticipated to be a key figure on the road to WrestleMania 40, embroiled in the intense rivalry between his cousin, Roman Reigns, and the 2024 Royal Rumble winner, Cody Rhodes.
With The Rock's undeniable ability to sell out arenas and draw massive attention to the WWE product, the company is looking to secure his involvement in future expeditions.
According to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is eyeing a blockbuster main event match between The Rock and Roman Reigns at one of their Saudi Arabia shows.
While no official confirmation has been made, the next Saudi Arabia pay-per-view is scheduled for May 25th, strategically positioned just ahead of AEW's Double or Nothing show. WWE is reportedly pushing hard for The Rock to participate, aiming to capitalize on the global appeal and financial success of such a marquee matchup.
Despite initial attempts to potentially shift The Rock's bout to a later date and maintain Cody Rhodes in the spot, the company is leaning towards featuring Reigns vs. The Rock in Saudi Arabia, with the intention of maximizing revenue.
