The wrestling legend used four words in his announcement: “Bold and disruptive. Unpredictable and dangerous.” Even so, fans remain skeptical.

However, his return could be linked to this year’s edition of the Grand Event, which will take place in Las Vegas on April 19 and 20. Although The Rock, during his last appearance at RAW’s Netflix debut, attempted to make amends with Cody Rhodes, the current WWE champion still has no challenger for WrestleMania. In fact, WWE’s Chief Content Officer, Triple H, addressed the actor’s return in a press release: “Buckle up. When the Final Boss shows up this time of year, the audience knows anything is possible. Everything can change in an instant.”
