The Rock WWE Return? Report says WWE plans to pit The Rock versus Brock Lesnar at Summer Slam

Will we ever see Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock wrestling in a WWE ring again?

If rumors are true, then we might see The Brahma Bull back in action this summer, specifically at WWE's next big PPV event, Summer Slam.

Citing a report of F4W Newsletter, Bleacher Report is saying that one of the plans of the WWE is to pit either The Rock or Cesaro against Brock Lesnar, who currently is the toast of the WWE after having him end The Undertaker's legendary Streak at Wrestlemania 30.

Per Bryan Alvarez of F4W Newsletter via Bleach: "Penciled in at the moment: Roman Reigns vs. Triple H at SummerSlam and Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock or Cesaro at WrestleMania 31. Brock-Cesaro seems like such an obvious direction and such a perfect match to elevate Cesaro that it seems dumb not to do it. On top of that, with Rock being increasingly fragile and Undertaker being hurt in the "safe" version of a Lesnar match, I'm not sure it's a good idea for safety/The Rock's film insurance reasons."

Of course, The Rock is busy promoting his upcoming film "Hercules' which is set to open in North America on July 25. The last time that we saw The Rock on the squared ring, he lost the WWE championship to John Cena at Wrestlemania 29. The Great One has not given any indication that he'll return to wrestling again, though last year he sounded like he's done with wrestling.

"I'd like to leave it open. But if I'd never wrestle again, I'd be very content with that," The Rock told The Province.com via IBMTimes.com. "Winning or losing never really mattered to me. The whole idea was to put on a great match. Got injured in that match. Still was able to walk out on my own, which I was more happy about. I don't know. We'll see."

Will The Rock wrestle again? Tell us @SportsWN.
