WWE WrestleMania 39 so far has been an eventful affair, with many exciting matches and moments for fans to enjoy. One of the most talked-about topics leading up to the event was the possibility of a match between Roman Reigns and The Rock. While that match did not come to fruition, Reigns has now commented on how close it came to happening.
While speaking with Ariel Helwani on BT Sport, Reigns was asked directly about the possibility of facing The Rock at WrestleMania 39. However, Reigns refused to provide a direct answer and instead deferred to his Special Counsel, Paul Heyman.
“I don’t really know, that’s more of a Heyman thing,” Reigns said. “Some of the stuff, I don’t necessarily want on my plate. So that’s why having a Special Counsel is so brilliant because we’re able to sift through things, fill through the things that I need to worry about and the things that I don’t need to worry about.”
Roman Reigns
While Reigns vs. The Rock did not happen at WrestleMania 39, Reigns is set to headline the event against Cody Rhodes. The match is sure to be an exciting one, and Reigns remains one of the most dominant and compelling figures in WWE today.
