Solo Sikoa Hasn’t Seen The Rock In Two Decades

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson remains one of the most well-known pro wrestlers to have ever stepped foot inside the squared circle. The Rock has done it all when it comes to being a pro wrestler. Rikishi’s son, Solo Sikoa, recently revealed his last interaction with The Rock. Needless to say, it will be quite a family reunion if The Rock makes a WWE return.

Solo Sikoa and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson have never been particularly close, despite both being members of the Anoa’i Family of professional wrestlers. In fact, Sikoa acknowledged in a “Give Me Sport” interview that it had been over two decades since he had really seen his famous uncle.

Johnson was telling Rikishi that he was just starting to create an acting career in movies like “The Rundown” and “Walking Tall,” so Sikoa, remembered the interaction. He recalled Johnson making the promise that after leaving this place, he would travel to Hollywood and then return. Sikoa drew huge inspiration from his dedication.

Last time, I think, I was backstage with my dad. Man, I was probably like 10 years old. I was always backstage man with my dad. I remember I was like, ‘Man, damn, that’s crazy — he’s doing this and that?’

Sikoa admitted that the 50-year-old Johnson is more like his father and his cousin Roman Reigns than he is because of the “huge age gap” between them. But he also mentioned that, if the reported match between Johnson and Reigns at WrestleMania 39 materializes, he might get the chance to work with “The Great One” once more the following spring.

That’ll definitely set who’s the head of the table in our family. Growing up watching Rock, man, and now seeing my cousin Roman in that position running WWE, I would definitely like to see that.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson-led Black Adam is now in theatres worldwide and The Rock is busy touring to promote the movie. The actor is also collaborating with the YouTube icon, MrBeast for a charity donation. Check out the full interview below.
