Recall that just a few months ago, The Rock confidently declared that a match against Roman Reigns was “locked” for WrestleMania 39. However, the anticipated face-off did not materialize. Instead, Cody Rhodes took on The Tribal Chief in an attempt to conclude his narrative.
Rhodes fell short in this endeavor, and his subsequent storyline has been centered around his quest to return to WrestleMania 40 for another opportunity. Meanwhile, The Rock has continued to tease the possibility of making an appearance in Philadelphia (something Rhodes has asserted he isn’t concerned about).
While The Rock has recently made headlines for various reasons, including an intriguing new movie project and purported political party approaches about a presidential run, a noteworthy comment caught our attention. In a post about his interaction with children from Make A Wish, The Rock expressed his love for pro wrestling and hinted at a “little secret” involving someone potentially making a return to WWE to lay the SmackDown on their opponents.
As we approach the Royal Rumble and the official commencement of WrestleMania season, the timing for The Rock’s potential return to WWE seems imminent.
Stay tuned.
