Nick Khan claims The Rock was always planned for a tag team match at WrestleMania 40 and that WWE's plans never changed.
“The plan was always how it ended up in Philly two years ago. You want to throw the fans off, you want to let things bake, and then boom, it ends up the way that we wanted it to end up. It never changed. That was just online rumors and gossip that we were changing. It never changed.
We convinced Dwayne Johnson to come back. He’s on our board of directors. It was a Tag Team Match. He’s about the same age I am, so two years ago, let’s say he was 50. He was obviously in phenomenal shape. He did everything that we asked of him and then some. But that was always the result we were looking for.”
