Former WWE superstar The Rock is one of the most popular celebrities today. The former professional wrestler is now one of the most renowned and highest-paid actors in Hollywood. However, he is best known for his time with WWE. But now he has stopped appearing in the WWE arena because of his busy schedule.
We have seen many of The Rock’s dream matches in WWE against the superstars like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Steve Austin, and many more. However, we haven’t seen him fighting outside of WWE and in other wrestling events. Here, we will take a look at 5 dream matches of The Rock outside WWE.
4. The Rock vs Daniel Bryan
Former WWE superstar Daniel Bryan was one of the most energetic superstars in WWE. Unfortunately, his contract with WWE ended in 2021 and later he joined AEW. Bryan once talked about the possibility of a match against The Rock on Twitter.
"I would love to do a match with The Rock based solely on how many times my daughter has made me listen to “You’re Welcome.” And then of course it’s stuck in my head and I sing it all day" Bryan tweeted.
3. The Rock vs Jon Moxley
Jon Moxley, who was known as Dean Ambrose in WWE was signed by AEW after the termination of his contract with WWE. Moxley was one of the wildest superstars in WWE. He started his WWE career with The Shield in his initial days with Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
He was seen fighting with many big superstars after The Shield was broken. He also had some interactions with The Rock but WWE couldn’t plot a story or a fight for both of them. However, Moxley is still wrestling in AEW, it might be possible if somehow The Rock and him clash against each other in the ring.
3. The Rock vs Maxwell Jacob Friedman
MJF is one of the most talked about AEW superstars, he was always very highly rated during his time on the independent circuits and his run in AEW is exactly what he needed to showcase his talents to the world.
His matchup with The Rock could be the most entertaining fight for the fans as MJF is one of the few wrestlers in the world who are great at almost every aspect of professional wrestling. He can give a tough fight to The Rock and make his time difficult between the ropes.
1. The Rock vs Kenny Omega
AEW Superstar Kenny Omega earned a lot of reputation since his time with New Japan for being an outstanding performer in the ring and has shown on AEW TV that he has the character work and verbal skills to present the full package.
When we look at Omega and The Rock, they are both very different and yet so similar, both can be seen as instrumental to the changing landscape of wrestling during their respective eras. Both have brilliant verbal skills and can plot the best fighting story together.
