WWE is attempting to set an attendance record in “Jerry World,” the 80,000-seat stadium that serves as home of the Dallas Cowboys.
It would mark the fifth consecutive WrestleMania appearance for The Rock, who has wrestled in 10 different WrestleManias, including five main events. In 2015, Johnson, a 10-time WWE world heavyweight champion, made an appearance at WrestleMania 31 alongside UFC superstar Ronda Rousey, to much acclaim.
In May, Johnson told Sports Illustrated that he, Triple H and Vince McMahon “talked about creating something that is amazing” for WrestleMania 32, so this announcement comes as no surprise.
We can smell what The Rock is cooking, and we can’t wait to find out what it is when it’s done.
