Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's recent feud with Grayson Waller on Twitter has proven to be a significant turning point for him. It has brought him immense goodwill after he made a remarkable seven-figure donation to SAG-AFTRA, setting a record for the largest contribution ever made to the union. Furthermore, The Rock has secured a "record-breaking payment" for his upcoming movie, Red One, showcasing his continued success and popularity in the entertainment industry. ## Despite being away from professional wrestling since his WrestleMania 32 match against Eric Rowan in 2016, The Rock's star power remains undiminished in the wrestling world. He continues to enjoy unwavering support from fans. ## In recent developments, Grayson Waller's social media exchange with The Rock has garnered significant attention and excitement from enthusiasts. The situation escalated when Waller took a direct shot at The Great One during a promo on SmackDown, adding fuel to the fire. ## During an interview on Ariel Helwani's MMA Hour, Waller was questioned about the potential for a face-off with The Rock. This exchange on social media has sparked intense interest and speculation among wrestling fans, leaving many eager to see what the future holds. ## “SummerSlam is always a big show. All of a sudden, people start seeing what I can do for these legends. Grayson Waller is on the WWE Legend Rehabilitation Program right now. If you're a WWE legend, it's hard, Twitter, Instagram, you don't know how to go on socials. Come and talk to me, I'll make you relevant again. You saw me do that with John Cena. You saw me do it with Edge. [Rock] is out of work right now. He's unemployed, correct? Actors are on strike. Technically, he's unemployed and needs some work. Who better to help The Rock than Grayson Waller?” ## “I just sent out a video. I didn't even tag him. People think I was clout chasing, I didn't even tag him. All of a sudden, he's coming back with the same insults he's been using for 15 years. I remember when I was 15 and thought you were funny, that was cool. It's an open invitation for the Grayson Waller Effect. If he wants to come on the show. His daughter is in a cult right now in NXT. His family is in shambles on the main show. He seems to be worried about Grayson Waller. We have to do something about it. There are so many legends in town for SummerSlam. I heard Undertaker might be in town. I heard whispers about Steve Austin. I'm hearing all these names thrown around, and for some reason, they all want to find me. If there is a legend in town that wants to talk to Grayson Waller, I'm open to it. It's not up to me, it's up to The Rock. He can make any claims about a busy schedule, but I know he doesn't have a busy schedule now. You wake up at 4 AM to work out, you're done by about 6 AM, you have a whole day free. I'm open. He can say whatever he wants to me, it would be a lot of fun. We'll see if Dwayne has anything to say.” ## Will The Rock Make It To WrestleMania 40? ## There is considerable hope among WWE fans that The Rock will make his long-awaited in-ring return at WrestleMania next year, following his absence from this year's event. Wrestling Observer Radio's Dave Meltzer reported that WWE is once again optimistic about The Rock's comeback, aiming for it to happen at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia. While The Great One declined to make his return in Los Angeles, he left a slight possibility open for a potential appearance in the future. ## Meltzer emphasized that The Rock's willingness to return is not a firm commitment, and fans shouldn't count on it happening for certain. The decision depends on various factors, including his busy schedule and other commitments. ## Recently, Roman Reigns' victory over Cody Rhodes raised confusion among fans due to the limited number of notable challengers left for the Head of the Table. Reigns has dominated the roster for nearly three years as champion, defeating almost every top babyface. As a result, a fresh, white-hot opponent like Rhodes seems like a natural successor to take on Reigns. ## While there might be an ongoing storyline involving Rhodes, even if he were to dethrone Reigns, it wouldn't be as grand as a WrestleMania moment. Considering The Rock's likely limited availability and the fact that an extended title reign is improbable, a match between him and Reigns doesn't necessarily need to involve a championship stipulation. ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
