Roman Reigns vs The Rock Wrestlemania 39 Betting Odds

Will The Rock Return to WWE to Face Roman Reigns?

While there hasn’t been any matches officially announced for Wrestlemania in 2023, there is one match that has been heavily rumored for the past several years with the serious possibility of happening next year over the course of two nights beginning Saturday, April 1 and concluding on Sunday April 2 at the Sofi Stadium in Inglewood, California. The long awaited return of Dwayne ” The Rock” Johnson is likely to happen at the extravaganza and The Rock would have the goal of being the one to finally stop the path of destruction of his own cousin, WWE and Universal Champion, Roman Reigns.

After not being accepted as a main eventer for years by WWE fans, Roman has since become a megastar. Reigns was able to win the Universal Championship, go into Wrestlemania 38 with that title where he captured the WWE Championship from Brock Lesnar and hasn.t been pinned since Decemeber 15, 2019. This current run by The Tribal Chief is arguable the best story in wrestling currently and the most dominant wrestler in modern history. Much of this success can be attributed to Reigns taking on Paul Heyman as an Advocate or “Wise Man” and forming the faction “The Bloodline” with his cousins The Usos.

Is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Related to Roman Reigns?

Roman Reigns’ more famous cousin Dwayne Johnson parallels his cousins’ rough climb to becoming a megastar. Rejected by fans as the plucky newcomer Rocky Miavia, Johnson pivoted and developed The Rock into a character that the WWE fans loved in the 1990’s. Dwayne was able to parlay his success as a top act in WWE into a career as an actor in Hollywood. He has said in the past that he wanted a match with Roman Reigns and the two facing off at Wrestlemania might be the biggest attraction WWE could possibly offer.

Although the match is expected, it is not etched in stone at this point. This didn’t stop BetOnline for posting odds to this rumored bout of Roman Reigns vs The Rock. Opening odds see Roman favored at -175 and The Rock as a +135 underdog. For those unaware of what these odds mean, the minus sign indicates the favorite and the plus sign represents the underdog. The corresponding number after quantifying how favored or unfavored a wrestler or team is. So to win $100 on Roman Reigns, it would take a $175 successful bet to do this.

Lucha Underground Season Finale in 4DX!

On Wednesday night I went with my soon to be co-host Brandon to see the Lucha Underground Season Finale in 4DX at the Regal in DTLA. I wasn’t sure what to expect, even with knowing a little of what 4DX entails before going in.

4DX is an “Immersive Video Experience” that you can read more about on their website. It includes moving seats, water features, clouds/fog, lightning, wind and more. Most of the movies also have a 3D viewing element, which unfortunately this event did not. I enjoyed it none the less.

First of all, watching wrestling on the big screen is great. I honestly don’t know why this isn’t utilized more often as a medium, especially with all the smaller independently owned theaters we have in the US. The special part here is the technology at the Regal. They are the only US partner with the company behind 4 DX and have only 6 Theaters with 4DX, the one here in Los Angeles, two in New York, one in Seattle, and one in Orlando.

During the episode of Lucha Underground, a lot of things were triggered by what was happening on the screen. Whenever someone took a shot to the head, air shot out a hole on one side or the other of your head. When they took bumps, you felt like you got hit in the back. When someone did a hurricanrana the whole row of seats shited and spun, which was a cool effect for what you were looking at visually. When Cage got stuck in the head with the skewers, we got bled on with water. Overall the effects very much added to the entertainment factor for me, and as it seems the others who were in attendance.

I really hope they do this again with season 4, and add the visual elements as well, as there were a few times I saw that really would have looked cool if they were made to pop. Lucha Underground continues to break ground and make wrestling fun again.
