"Matter of fact, Vince McMahon and I were talking about two months ago trying to figure out what I was going to do if I went back to WrestleMania. He pitched me this really great idea that I'd get involved in a tag match with Ronda Rousey who is of course incredible and I'm very proud of her," said The Rock. "We couldn't make it work this time  because I was in Shanghai. But, Who knows down line?," he continued.
