Wrestling veteran Dutch Mantell recently shared his views on the upcoming WWE Royal Rumble 2023 match. Mantell gave his opinion on who will win the Men’s Royal Rumble 2023 match. In his view, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson should make a return to WWE and win the 30-man match in Texas.
The Rock has been rumored to return to WWE for a final run since long. However, the rumors of his return have always proven to be incorrect. The Brahma Bull has not appeared on WWE TV since his appearance on the first episode of SmackDown on FOX back in 2019. He participated in a segment with the then RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch as the duo took out King Corbin.
As per rumors, The Rock is likely to return to WWE in 2023 and challenge his cousin Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39. The mega match could headline the Showcase of Immortals in Hollywood. Giving his two cents on that idea, Dutch Mantell said on Sportskeeda’s Smack Talk show:
“I think The Rock is a can’t-miss. I mean we are talking about the biggest movie star in the world, one of the biggest stars WWE has ever had. And the people like The Rock.”
Will The Rock return at WWE Royal Rumble 2023?
Many fans have only one question in their minds, and that is whether or not The Rock will make his much-awaited WWE return at the upcoming WWE premium live event in Texas. The answer to that question is maybe or maybe not.
If you ever feel sad, just remember that the world is over 4 billion years old and you existed at the same time as The Rock and Stone Cold 🐐🐐 pic.twitter.com/rAdFtlbiPF

Whatever the rumor mills claim, the final decision maker in this situation is The Rock himself. He has to decide whether his body can take more blows in the ring because he will have a physical match at WrestleMania 39 if he indeed steps up to challenge Roman Reigns.
