In what will likely kill some WrestleMania 32 rumors, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that there is no way The Rock will be able to actually wrestle at the event. This is due to contractual obligations he has to the Baywatch movie and their insurance provider. The Baywatch movie will be filming around the same time as ‘Mania.
WWE reportedly has a full WrestleMania 32 card penciled in right now without any sign of The Rock on it. The Rock has been teasing an appearance at the company’s biggest pay-per-view of the year, and it seems that he will be limited to a speaking-only role.

Baywatch starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will hit theaters in 2017, and also features former WWE diva Kelly Kelly.
WrestleMania 32 takes place on April 3, 2016, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. We’ll have live results on that Sunday night here on SEScoops, and backstage news all week leading up to the biggest wrestling event of the year.
