Roman Reigns gets candid about whether he's still interested in facing The Rock in WWE
Roman Reigns has recently commented on whether a match between him and The Rock is still on the table. The two stars were supposed to collide at WWE WrestleMania XL, but it did not come to fruition.
Instead, they teamed up to take on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins in the main event of Night One, which they won. The Great One also joined The Bloodline and was part of the villainous faction for a brief period. The reason why The Original Tribal Chief and The Final Boss did not compete against each other at The Show of Shows this year was due to major fan backlash, but it is still a match that many people would love to see.
During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Roman Reigns was asked whether a match between him and The Rock could still happen. The Head of the Table stated that if fans want it and so does his cousin, then it might be possible.
"I think our fanbase and the company's proven that if our fans are loud enough and passionate enough about something, we're a company who - we're not being dictated to. We have a vision for where we're trying to go, but we know who the consumers are. We know who's paying their hard-earned money, and we want to satisfy those people, but we have to do it in a regard that's going to attract more eyes and bring more people in. And Dwayne's always going to be in that role," Roman Reigns said. [32:20 - 32:57]
The 39-year-old star went on:
"That's why he's a part of the board and a part of everything the way he is, because we're at an unprecedented time right now. Business is great, and we just want to continue to push things up. So, if that's what the people want and The People's Champ is down, I'm sure we can make something happen." [33:51 - 34:08]

Roman Reigns has a major task ahead of him at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2024
Roman Reigns used to be the one and only Tribal Chief in WWE, but that label currently belongs to his cousin, Solo Sikoa, who has the Ula Fala with him. The former NXT North American Champion pinned The Original Tribal Chief at Crown Jewel 2024 to pick up a victory for his team in the Six-Man Tag Team Match.
Roman and Solo will be on opposing sides at the Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 Premium Live Event. Reigns will have to trust his OG Bloodline teammates, including CM Punk. The RAW Superstar could have ulterior motives which nobody knows for sure. If Roman wants to showcase his supremacy as The Head of the Table, the OG Bloodline must get the victory in the Men's WarGames Match. It will be interesting to see whether he overcomes all of his challenges.
