The wrestling world has been buzzing with excitement since The Rock’s electrifying return to WWE at Raw Day 1. His resurgence has been marked by a series of unexpected twists and turns, particularly his surprising alliance with The Bloodline on Friday Night SmackDown.
Initially slated to face Roman Reigns, a sudden plot twist orchestrated by Cody Rhodes saw The Great One embrace his villainous side, aligning himself with Reigns and Seth Rollins.
As the WrestleMania 40 storyline unfolds, The Rock’s presence has been a constant fixture on the weekly shows, injecting a surge of energy into the blue brand. However, speculation ran rampant as his scheduled appearances on SmackDown came to an end last week, leaving fans wondering about his next move.
In a thrilling turn of events, WWE has officially confirmed The Rock’s next appearance, this time on the Raw brand. On the March 18, 2024 episode of Raw, it was announced that The Rock would be making his grand return to Monday Night Raw on April 1, 2024, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The news was further solidified by The Rock himself, who took to X to share a video teasing his comeback, accompanied by a cryptic message: “One night only.”
In his announcement on X, The Rock declared, “THE FINAL BOSS WILL ELECTRIFY BROOKLYN ON MONDAY NIGHT RAW. Now sit back, shut your mouths and ENJOY THE RIDE THE ROCK IS TAKING ALL YOUR CANDY ASSES ON.”
Just moments before the official announcement, Cody Rhodes seized the spotlight, delivering scathing remarks about The Rock during a live segment in North Carolina.
With The Great One absent from this week’s SmackDown, anticipation is at an all-time high as Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns prepare to go head-to-head without the involvement of The Bloodline.
The Rock’s upcoming appearance on Raw marks his first return to the red brand since his shocking heel turn. With Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins also expected to be in attendance at the Barclays Center, the stage is set for an explosive showdown that promises to shake the WWE universe to its core.
