Hulk Hogan Wants a Rematch with The Rock
SUPER LUCHAS echoed the anecdote recounted by The Rock about Hulk Hogan, which was recently responded to on Twitter by "The Immortal." An indication that he may be preparing for one last foray into the WWE ring, if we also take into account what his son Nick said, although a third match against Rocky would be highly unlikely.
Hulk Hogan wants to have a rematch with The Rock
And it's because Dwayne Johnson is the most profitable actor today, and one of the most popular personalities in the Hollywood Star-System. Proof of this is that he graces the cover of the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, a true institution in the USA. In light of the event, Vince McMahon offered his compliments to one of his biggest stars of the past few decades.

And "Dwanta Claus" wanted to return the compliments to the one who believed in him from the very beginning, over 20 years ago. Rocky wanted to share the words that convinced him to pursue his career within the giant of sports entertainment.
First shook hands w/ Vince when I was 11yrs old.
At 25, he offered me the bare minimum @WWE contract. Said, “You can go to WCW for more money but here you’ll earn every dollar”
To this day, Vince is one of my greatest mentors & trusted advisors. #FullCircle #Ohana 🙏🏾🤙🏾 https://t.co/YB2rBHHe8L— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) December 2, 2017
“I first shook hands with Vince McMahon when I was 11 years old. At 25, he offered me the minimum WWE contract. He said, 'You can go to WCW for more money, but here you'll earn every dollar.' To this day, Vince is one of my greatest mentors and trusted advisors.”
"The Great One" confessed in 2013 that during his early days, he received a significant offer from WCW that even doubled his salary at WWE. Few talents can say that they have maintained such an exclusive alliance with a wrestling company for so long. Setting aside a hypothetical fight with Hogan, a more feasible scenario would be to face Triple H or Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 34, two names already mentioned by the actor himself.
However, Dwayne has five movies scheduled to be released by 2019. The first, the second installment of the legendary Jumanji, will be released on the 20th of this month, and will likely be another box office success. Therefore, it would be difficult to juggle a new wrestling stint (through proper training) with his film commitments. One thing has been clear for a long time: WWE always leaves the doors wide open for him. Loyalty is sometimes rewarded.
