WWE RAW Superstar Rey Mysterio has said that it would have been special to step in the ring with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.
Mysterio debuted for WWE in July 2002, just as The Rock’s full-time career with the promotion was coming to an end.
Speaking with Alex McCarthy of Inside The Ropes, Mysterio was asked if a match between the two could have ever worked.
“I remember he was flying back to L.A to shoot, we had just finished doing I believe a SmackDown, and he offered me and Chavo [Guerrero] at the time to fly back with him.
“I remember flying back with him, and man, such an incredible human being, very, very humble, feet flat and firm on the ground. We never had the opportunity to speak about that particular moment but he did mention to me that he was always a fan watching us on WCW.
“[With regard to a match] It would have been special.”
The Rock’s most recent match saw him defeat Erick Rowan in seconds at WrestleMania 32, though it is reported that he will compete at WrestleMania 39 next year against Roman Reigns.
