The Rock named Wrestlemania’s real MVP and hinted at when he would return to WWE.
Earlier this month The Rock, John Cena and The Undertaker were in the ring for the WWE’s biggest box office event, Wrestlemania.
The two-day show saw Cody Rhodes end Roman Reigns' three-year title streak in the culmination of the bloodline saga - one of WWE's biggest storylines.

The Rock, real name Dwayne Johnson, made his return to the event more than 25 years after his wrestling debut, partnering with Reigns to take on Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a tag-team match in the first night’s main event.
That night was the "highest-selling single night" in the history of WWE, according to the Rock, who is also a board member of TKO - the company formed when WWE merged with UFC.
And a week on from the Philadelphia event, the WWE icon took to Instagram to discuss the weekend, while offering praise to Rhodes, Reigns and Rollins.

He also hinted that he would take part in Wrestlemania 41 next year.
The Rock said: “Congratulations to the men that I was in the ring with. These men are the best on the planet.
“Congratulations to Mr Cody Rhodes, the new Universal Champion. As I had said, when the Final Boss returns he’s coming back for you. [I’m going to] make you bleed again boy,

“Congratulations Cody Rhodes. Congratulations to my cousin Roman Reigns on an incredible three-and-a-half-year run, maybe even four years. Just incredible and iconic and historic. I’m very, very proud of you.
“And also congratulations to who I feel is the real MVP of the entire Wrestlemania weekend - Seth Rollins. Seth freaking Rollins.
“What an honour it was to share a ring with you three, what an honour it was to break records and now my sites are set on the next Wrestlemania. But that’s a conversation down the road.”
