There's no denying that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will go down as one of the greatest wrestlers of all-time but who does he consider to be among the best?

In a new Instagram post, The Great One has reflected on his match with Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 18 in 2002 and pointed out that his three GOATs are Stone Cold Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan, and Ric Flair. He crossed paths with all of them over the years and had some of his best bouts against Austin on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

As of right now, it doesn't appear as if The Rock will appear at this year's WrestleMania. However, with next year's show taking place in Tampa, Florida, there's a very good chance he will finally be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. 

Unfortunately, it's hard to imagine him ever stepping back inside the squared circle for one more match...

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Torch passed. Grateful. This past weekend @WWE celebrated the 17th anniversary of what was billed as “ICON vs ICON” to determine who would go down in @WWE history as THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. It was yours truly, VS The Immortal Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania. What made this match so special was that there was no Heavyweight Championship on the line. Just two men. Just two careers. And 85,000+ of the most insane ELECTRIC crowd I have ever had the privilege to perform in front of. It was almost as if every single person that night in the Toronto SkyDome made up their mind that they would give every ounce of energy they had because they knew this match was only going to be seen once in a lifetime. My friend and childhood hero, Hulk Hogan passed the torch to me on this historic night which decreed me becoming “THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME”, but the truth is - to me - the GOAT are the three men who paved the way for me and so many others in pro wrestling/ @hulkhogan @ricflairnatureboy @steveaustinbsr I just worked very hard, connected with the audience and caught a break. These GOATS were good enough to recognize I had something to offer and graciously passed the torch. Grateful.
