While everyone looks to The Rock facing Steve Austin, his greatest rival really was Triple H. The two men feuded in the mid-card and battled all the way up to the main events against each other in WWE.
Spending that much time together, it is no surprise that they stayed close as friends. Triple H is often someone that The Rock is in contact with over pitching ideas as well to bring him back, giving them a positive reason to stay in touch.
