The Rock: I Don’t Know If I Have Another Title Run In Me; Another Match Would Have To Make Sense
The Rock hasn’t wrestled since WrestleMania 32 and hasn’t held a championship since 2013.
While The Rock’s second to last match was for the WWE Championship, he doesn’t know if he can hold the gold at this point of his career.
“I don’t know if I have another title run, considering I’m the People’s Champion, but I don’t know if it’s another title run,” Johnson said, when asked by ComicBook.com about another title run. “I think possibly, you know, there might be another match down the road. It would have to make sense.”
Speaking about the job Roman Reigns is doing as WWE Universal Champion, The Rock said, “It seems like Roman, you know, I’m very close with Roman obviously, and we talk about this all the time, and I continue to encourage him to keep doing your thing, keep sharpening those skills. I think he’s doing a great job with his promo, his execution, his in-ring work. It all continues to improve and grow. And that’s always the best part, I think, about that world of professional wrestling is that when someone gets anointed and given the ball to run, they either score a touchdown with it or they don’t. But then some, not only score a touchdown with it, but then they begin to change the way the game is played. And in Roman’s case, he’s slowly doing that, and you could start to read the tea leaves. And again, I’m very, very proud of him. I like everything that he’s doing. I like everything that the Usos are doing. I like what they’re doing together, and we’ll see down the road.”
The Rock told Andrew Freund that there was no truth to the rumors that he would be wrestling Reigns at WrestleMania. You can view his full comments by clicking here.
