Now, it appears that those talks could soon come to fruition, after he made a stunning appearance at Monday Night RAW.

During his cameo, ‘The Rock’ addressed why he was really back, as we head into the peak of the WWE calendar.

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson made a shock return to the WWE and issued a call-out for a potential super-fight with Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns continues to be the holder for the WWE undisputed heavyweight championship

‘I’m gonna go get something to eat,’ he explained.

‘Should The Rock sit in a booth? Or should The Rock sit at the bar? Or should The Rock sit… at the head of the table?’

The final phrase was a clear call-out to Reigns, who is nicknamed as ‘Head of the Table’, who is the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.

Reigns has enjoyed a staggering run as the champion, having had a grip on the Universal Championship for over 1,200 days.

It’s expected that the two wrestling giants could face-off at WrestleMania 40, which will take place between April 6-7.

Last month, Mail Sport exclusively revealed that Jey Uso claimed a match-up between the Rock and Reigns would be ‘the ‘biggest’ match-up in wrestling.

Asked by Mail Sport’s Alex McCarthy about this prospect, Uso said: ‘If I had to pick one, I’d pick the Tribal Chief. The Rock’s been out the game for a while, the Tribal Chief knows what it is.

‘I feel like no one’s going to dethrone the Tribal Chief, if it’s not one of us in the family – I don’t think there’s no one out there. Punk, Randy, it’s none of them.’

The 51-year-old last appeared in the WWE back in September, when he told Pat McAfee there were talks for him to take on Reigns at WrestleMania 39

Asked whether he would like to face the Rock, he added: ‘I think that’s what the people want, I mean hell yeah I’d like to interact with the Rock.

‘It could work and I feel it would be real entertaining. That’s the two biggest stars in our family, but we’re still winning either way.’

The Main Event star also agreed that a match between the two of them ‘would be the biggest match in wrestling’ and he would ‘love to see it’.
