According to a wrestling veteran, WWE Superstars Roman Reigns and The Rock may not replicate the incredible feat achieved by Stone Cold Steve Austin and his opponent two years ago.
The highly anticipated showdown between the two Samoan family members is slated for the upcoming WrestleMania XL event, potentially marking a historic clash at The Showcase of the Immortals.
This development unfolded after Cody Rhodes relinquished his main event spot to the wrestler-turned-actor, a decision that has left WWE fans irate as they hoped for The American Nightmare to conclude his storyline.
During a recent segment of Wrestling Observer Radio, veteran wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer discussed Stone Cold’s WrestleMania 38 bout against Kevin Owens.
Meltzer highlighted that the nine-time WWE champion and The Texas Rattlesnake delivered a compelling wrestling match, earning praise from critics and peers alike.
However, Meltzer expressed doubts about whether The Tribal Chief could carry The Rock if they square off at WrestleMania 40, emphasizing Kevin Owens’ ability to effectively guide the WWE Hall of Famer, who had been absent from the ring for an extended period.
“Kevin Owens, in many respects, is superior to Roman Reigns in terms of in-ring performance and the ability to lead a match with someone less experienced,” Meltzer remarked.
