‘The Tribal Chief’ Roman Reigns is one of the most dominant superstars in WWE history. Since his debut on the main roster, fans have seen him as the top guy in WWE and he has more than lived up to the billing.

However, Roman Reigns’ heel turn brought him a lot of attention from the fans as they appreciated his character. Although WWE pushed him a lot in recent years, he gathered genuine support from the fans only after his heel turn.

Since Reigns reclaimed his Universal Championship, the WWE Universe witnessed a lot of exciting matches with new opponents. It’s quite clear that Roman Reigns turned out to be one of the biggest assets to WWE. And one match that the WWE Universe has desperately wanted to see is between Roman Reigns and the People’s Champion, The Rock.

Recently, Hall of Famer Mark Henry featured in Busted Open Radio, where he mentioned Roman Reigns and The Rock. He put forth his opinion on the biggest dream match in WWE history. He said, “There’s only one thing that can be changed and it’s really not even a change. It’s only one thing that can happen that can take it out of this world and make it and that’s for The Rock to come and say, ‘No, you don’t run the family. I run the family’.”

“If that was to happen it would be the biggest thing to happen in pro wrestling. Because this is already historically [a] top tier story without The Rock. You add The Rock, man you can put it right up there with [The Mega Powers].” [H/t SE Scoops]

The Mega Powers was the tag team comprising Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, which eventually led to their dispute.

Moreover, Mark Henry added that The People’s Champ The Rock has already made epic matches, fighting with the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin. It was one of the greatest feuds of all time between The Brahma Bull and The Texas Rattlesnake.
