Saudi Arabia May Pay WWE Legend $20 Million For WrestleMania 43 Return

WWE WrestleMania 43 is headed to Saudi Arabia in 2027.

This is a part of the ongoing strategic partnership between Saudi Arabia and WWE. Furthermore, there have been hints that TKO might sell WWE to Saudi Arabia.

Interestingly, it has been noted that Vince McMahon has the highest chance of returning to the company if WWE is purchased by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Rock could return to WWE WrestleMania 43

On The Coach and Bro, Jonathan Coachman answered a fan question about which legends could return to WrestleMania 43 and, realistically, how much money they would be paid.

Coachman only spoke about The Rock’s return to WWE TV at WrestleMania 43, and that he could easily be paid $20 Million to $30 Million for the match, or even if it’s an appearance.

I do think that there could be some um truth, even though I think people are throwing The Rock’s name out there because it’s easy, Vince, but he’s the one guy that we know he loves to make money. And if you give him a six-month build and you say $20 million to come be in Wrestlemania, who wouldn’t wrestle one match for 20 million or 30 million?

The Rock was last seen on WWE TV at Elimination Chamber 2025 when John Cena turned heel on Cody Rhodes. However, that storyline did not lead to anything because The Final Boss stopped appearing on WWE TV.
