Paul Heyman understands that wrestling fans want to see The Rock and Roman Reigns go one-on-one but Paul Heyman also knows there are many desirable things in life and you can fantasize all you want, but it’s not real until you’re in the moment.
The Rock vs. Roman Reigns has been the most-discussed potential WrestleMania dream match in recent history. Both parties have said on multiple occasions that they are open to doing the match when the time is right, but in a new interview Paul Heyman says discussions of any kind are all well and good but they boil down to “masturbatory fantasies” until Dwayne Johnson puts pen to paper and agrees to meet Roman Reigns.
“We can speculate all we want about Dwayne The Rock Johnson stepping into the ring with Roman Reigns,” Heyman tells Sportskeeda’s Kevin Kellam. “It’s masturbatory fantasies until there’s a piece of paper in front of us with Dwayne Johnson’s signature on it. Then I know it’s real. And until then it’s just fantasy. It’s a fantasy of Dwayne Johnson’s to come and get the rub from The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns.”
“It’s a fantasy of Dwayne Johnson to feel the energy of 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 thousand people live, cheering on as The Tribal Chief smashes The Rock,” Heyman added. “It’s a fantasy of Dwayne Johnson to step into the ring with the greatest of all time, Roman Reigns… then, now, and forever. Not until he puts his name on a contract, it’s just his fantasy.”
