The Rock, a former WWE Champion, has been rumored to return to the WWE soon, but recent reports suggest that his status for WrestleMania 41 is still uncertain. Despite being heavily involved in the buildup to WrestleMania 40, The Great One’s appearance at the event was not confirmed, and WWE is now proceeding with creative plans as if he will not be available.
The Rock’s involvement in WrestleMania 40 was marked by a dramatic turn of events, as he initially planned to face Roman Reigns but eventually turned heel after fans clamored for Cody Rhodes to challenge The Tribal Chief instead. However, he remained by his cousin’s side and competed on Night One of the event, and later appeared on RAW to confront Cody Rhodes.
During this time, The Rock hinted that he would be taking a break from the WWE, saying that he was going away for a while but would come back for Cody Rhodes. This statement fueled speculation that he would return soon, but according to reports from Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Dr. Chris Featherstone, WWE is not currently counting on his availability for WrestleMania 41.
Despite this, the company is still interested in using The Rock if his schedule allows it, and plans could change at any moment. This uncertainty has left fans wondering what the future holds for The Rock’s WWE career, and whether he will eventually return to the ring to face Roman Reigns in the long-awaited dream match.
In a recent interview, Roman Reigns discussed the possibility of facing his cousin, stating that the match could still take place if the fans want it. He acknowledged that The Rock is tied to the company in a significant way and expressed his willingness to make it happen if the People’s Champ is down.
The Rock’s return to the WWE would undoubtedly be a major draw, and fans are eager to see how he will be involved in the Bloodline storyline. With his uncertain status for WrestleMania 41, only time will tell when and if he will return to the ring.
