"Notice how The Rock doesn't pick a fight with Brock Lesnar? Is Brock Lesnar ready for The Rock? Is The Rock ready for Brock?" Heyman said.

"I think Brock Lesnar against anyone is an automatic sell-out," he added.

The Rock is the highest-paid Hollywood actor, combine that with Lesnar's drawing power and the WWE has the biggest fight in their promotion's history. Add the fact that Dwayne Johnson is from Florida and it would he huge to see him wrestle in front of his hometown crowd.

However, it is not only the rumored match the two superstars are involved. The Beast is also linked with a WrestleMania 33 match with Bill Goldberg, who is reportedly close to signing a part-timers deal with the WWE.

Lesnar vs. Goldberg is also a big match since it is a rematch of their WrestleMania 20 encounter. The WWE and both superstars have been teasing a match ever since the WWE 2K17 video game came out. Lesnar is the cover star while Goldberg is the exclusive pre-order playable character.

On the other hand, The Rock was rumored to have a match with "Fast 8" co-star Vin Diesel, who had a beef with the former WWE champion. According to The Inquisitr, the real-life feud between Johnson and Diesel will lead to possible storyline and match at WrestleMania 33.

It is the perfect opportunity to attract casual fans, as well as promote their movie that is due out in the same month. Nonetheless, these are purely speculative at the moment and plans are always changing with WrestleMania still more than half a year away.
