"We are all waiting, ONE LAST MATCH" - Fans let WWE Legend know they want him to face Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns has been a World Champion since 2020 and looks set to walk into WrestleMania 39 with his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, where he is rumored to face The Rock. It's been 26 years since Dwayne Johnson made his wrestling debut, and he recently posted a heartfelt tweet looking back at his career and thanking his fans for supporting him throughout his wrestling journey.
While many reminisced about his original Rocky Malvia character, there were many responses about a long-awaited dream match against The Bloodline leader.
The Rock is the current favorite to wrestle the Tribal Chief at WrestleMania 39 if his hectic schedule allows him to do so. Reports state that WWE wants The Great One to take on his Samoan cousin at next year's show of shows.

Teddy Long suggests debuting star should dethrone Roman Reigns
The Rock might have the credibility to end Roman Reigns' record-breaking title run, but WWE has a few other names who could also be trusted with the high-profile job. The company, however, can pull off an even bigger swerve by getting a new face to beat Roman.
During the premiere episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's One on One, Teddy Long revealed why former NWA Champion Nick Aldis should debut in WWE and take the belts off Reigns.
The WWE Hall of Famer even had a compelling idea of involving Cody Rhodes in the championship picture, as explained below:
"That's money right there. But I'll kind of do it the other way around. I'll have Nick come in first and take the belt from Roman Reigns. I'd do it that way, and then he's out there celebrating, and of the out blue, here comes Cody," said Teddy Long.
Should Nick Aldis be Roman Reigns' next opponent? Sound off in the comments section below.
