WWE Rumors: The Rock vs. Reigns 'Still Happening' After Cody Rhodes' Royal Rumble Win

The highly anticipated dream match between The Rock and Roman Reigns "is still happening," according to Wrestling Observer Radio's Dave Meltzer (via Andrew Ravens of WrestingNews.co)

Meltzer added a rematch between Reigns and Cody Rhodes is also on tap at some point after Rhodes won the men's Royal Rumble match Saturday night.

"It is going to be Cody and Roman Reigns in a singles match, and Dwayne is coming," Meltzer said. "Dwayne-Roman Reigns match, whenever it is, it is still happening. I just don't know where, and Bryan, you may know where because you probably know discussions that I may know too, and I can't talk about them."

From the moment The Rock returned at Raw Day 1 and teased a fight with Reigns, many fans were left to wonder if Rhodes would be shuffled to the side a bit.

The Rock clearly wouldn't come back on a full-time schedule, and it's tough to envision WWE staging his grand return at a secondary premium live event such as Elimination Chamber, even if that's scheduled to be a stadium show in Perth, Australia.

If The Rock vs. Roman is tentatively slated for WrestleMania, where does that leave Rhodes? The beauty of a two-night WrestleMania is that The Rock and Reigns could headline the April 6 show, with Rhodes getting his title shot to close out the event April 7.

Perhaps WWE will avoid the problem altogether by delaying The Rock's comeback until a later date, presumably SummerSlam.

The Royal Rumble typically provides clarity regarding the top of the WrestleMania card, but so much still feels in flux.
