When was the last time The Rock fought a match at WrestleMania?

Initially, WWE wanted The Great One to go one-on-one with Roman Reigns at this year's WrestleMania. However, the company was forced to change its plans following a massive backlash from fans after Cody Rhodes gave up his coveted spot to The Rock.

The Rock's last match in WWE was at the 2016 edition of The Grandest Stage of Them All. The Brahma Bull made a surprise return to the Squared Circle and was involved in an impromptu match against Erick Rowan. The former WWE Champion defeated Rowan in six seconds, setting the record for the shortest match in WrestleMania history.

It will be interesting to see how The Great One performs inside the ring after a lengthy break from in-ring action.
