The Rock Silences All Non-Believers by Making Wrestlemania 28 Match | WWE

"The Rock will never wrestle another match".

These words have been said by so many for so long. No one wanted to believe that The Rock, The People's Champion, would ever return to the squared circle. After moving to Hollywood to pursue acting, The Rock tried to distance himself by dropping his wrestling moniker and going by Dwayne Johnson.

For years, people have thought of Rock as an ex-wrestler, and not a wrestler who might return someday. The Rock himself even said in interviews that he had done everything he wanted to do in wrestling.

Now it seems as if all that has changed. A match that could go down as one of the most hyped matches of all time has been set a full year in advance. The WWE's current poster boy against their top guy of yesteryear: The Rock vs John Cena.

Rock made a huge impact when he returned to WWE and vowed to bring it, but no one expected him to get very physical. Then he got into a brawl with Alex Riley and The Miz, which ended with The Rock getting an AA from Cena.

Clearly all of us underestimated just how physical Rocky was willing to get, because at Wrestlemania, in the main event of the evening, The Rock cost John Cena the WWE championship after having restarted the match when it had originally gone to a double count out.

Some may question the decision to have Wrestlemania end on a closup of a man who didn't even have a match, but I understand the logic perfectly. The Rock is one of the most popular performers of all time in the WWE, and to bring him in and shake things up was a good move by Vince and company.

Wrestlemania 28 is a year away and we already know what match will likely close the show. I just hope that between now and then something doesn't happen where one of the guys gets injured. Making a match a year in advance has so many unknown factors that we may not end up seeing the match.

Either way, one thing is for sure and that is Rock is going to bring the pain next Wrestlemania.
