In a recent interview with KISS FM UK, to promote the new movie “Rampage”, Rock confirms that he was indeed tapped to be Ronda Rousey’s partner at WrestleMania 34, but the deal could not be reached due to Rock’s movie commitments.
“Matter of fact, Vince McMahon and I were talking about two months ago trying to figure out what I was going to do if I went back to WrestleMania,” said The Rock, h/t to IWNerd.com for the transcription. “He pitched me this really great idea that I’d get involved in a tag match with Ronda Rousey who is of course incredible and I’m very proud of her.
