Bobby Lashley has commented on The Rock’s potential comeback to WWE.
WWE has been hoping to have The Rock vs. Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39 this year for months. Prior to the Royal Rumble, The Rock had to respond to WWE by the middle of January on his participation in the event.
The Rock’s participation in WrestleMania 39 is still up in the air, as previously mentioned, but it doesn’t appear that he will be competing since he feels he doesn’t have enough time to prepare for a match.
While speaking to Sportskeeda, Lashley noted he doesn’t know whether Rock will be returning but knows it would be great for the company if he did due to his Hollywood status.
“What would it mean to the company? The Rock is a huge star. So, of course, if he comes back, it’s going to bring a lot of notoriety to us, and being in Hollywood this year, I think there would be a good opportunity that he may be back. I don’t know. I have been asked several times if The Rock is coming back. We don’t know anything. I don’t even know what I’m doing next week. I can’t really tell you what The Rock is doing, but of course, everybody would love to see The Rock. He’s a huge star. So if he comes back, it’ll be good for all of us.”
