The Rock returned to WWE TV on Friday's WWE SmackDown, asking Cody Rhodes to be "his champion" in exchange for his soul.
The Rock said in the post-show press conference that he wasn't necessarily setting up a match with Cody.
Speaking on Something To Wrestling, JBL was asked if he thinks The Rock will wrestle at WrestleMania 41.
“I think there’s a chance, yeah, because I think The Rock loves wrestling. I think, deep down, The Rock really enjoys wrestling, and he’s always loved the business, grew up in the business, it’s always been a part of his blood. He’s really good at it, by the way. I’d love to see him wrestle. I don’t know if he will or not. You never know what’s a swerve and what isn’t. When he said Cody and he don’t have to culminate in a match, I thought it was a great thing that he said. Now, whether that is true or not is different, whether he’s working or whatever else. Good grief, I hope he’s working us because I enjoy being worked, I enjoy swerves coming, and I enjoy having the fun of being surprised. I’d love to see Rock in a match. I’d love to see Rock versus Roman [Reigns]. I think that’s one of the most interesting things that’s out there," he said.
The Rock is set to appear at WWE Elimination Chamber on Saturday.
