Professional wrestling legend and the current WWE Head of Creative Triple H who is the former 14 times WWE World Champion recently talked about his long time rival The Rock and discussed never having a one on one match with the People’s Champion at WrestleMania.
Triple H and the rock had from amazing feuds and matches during the famous Attitude Era. In fact The Rock earned his early fame in WWE while having a feud with the Game. It was in 1998 when D Generation X and The Nation of Domination had a long running feud and the main feud was between The Rock and Hunter.
Triple H Reflects On Never Having A Match With The Rock At WrestleMania
After this feud, the duo met each other for quite a number of times and every time it was worth a watch. But these two legendary professional wrestlers never faced each other at a stage like WrestleMania in a one on one match. It had been rumoured for a number of years but unfortunately it looks like it would never happen again.
But these two wrestlers faced each other in a fatal 4 way match at WrestleMania 2000 where Mick Foley and The Big Show were also involved. The match was initially scheduled to be a one on one match, but to add more variety, they made it fatal 4 way. A one on one match between the duo for WrestleMania was rumoured for a number of years recently but it never happened.
It is really unfortunate that we can never experience such an amazing and high voltage match at a stage like WrestleMania. It would definitely be a dream come true to see these two wrestlers facing each other at the grandest stage of them all. But Triple H is already retired from in ring action so this match is now impossible.
Triple H who is the former 14 times WWE World Champion recently spoke on the LADBible TV YouTube channel where he talked about his long time rival The Rock and discussed never having a one on one match with the People’s Champion at WrestleMania. He said;
“We never sort of had that defining WrestleMania moment. A few years ago, we teased he and I wrestling one more time […] he came to me and was like ‘Hey dude, I got one more in me. I wanna do it with you. I want you and I to have that WrestleMania sort of moment, and let’s do it at WrestleMania.’
“It turned out that it was for the following year, so we had done this video for it, and we’re ready to go with it, and somewhere along the time of that year his movie career sort of changed. […] He was like ‘Ah man, I’m not gonna be able to do this. The timing just doesn’t work out right and I can’t pass up this other opportunity.’ No problem. But that’s really where we were headed.”
