The Rock Speaks Out On His Confusing Monday Night Raw Appearance, And Has A Message For Critics Unclear About His Future In WWE

On Netflix, Monday Night Raw has made an impressive debut, except for those who tuned in hoping to catch up on Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s role at WrestleMania 41. The Rock graced the episode initially, but his promo left many puzzled about his potential appearance. After noticing the complaints, Johnson reassured fans that he wasn’t intended to be a formidable “Final Boss” in this recent episode.

Audience members are undoubtedly excited for forthcoming WWE shows; however, during this interval, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was present at NXT’s New Year’s Evil event, cheering on his daughter and NXT star Ava Raine. Known for voicing his opinions, Johnson addressed criticisms about his Monday Night Raw promo, suggesting it appeared more like self-promotion than a genuine comeback to WWE. Interestingly, he didn’t engage with Cody Rhodes during this appearance, a fact he pointed out promptly.

Previously, it seemed like everyone was asking, ‘Why are you being harsh towards Cody? Cody needs to wrap up his story!’ Now, a year later, watching Raw on Netflix turned out to be an incredible experience. The Rock decided to acknowledge Cody’s achievements and give him the recognition he deserved. He’s been excelling and supporting the company single-handedly, yet some people said, ‘Don’t treat Cody kindly; you can’t show kindness to Cody!’ In the end, let us all remind them that The Rock is the ultimate challenge, always thinking ahead. It would be wise for everyone to understand their roles, keep quiet and appreciate the journey that The Rock is leading them on.

I understand this to mean ‘Keep watching,’ implying that we’ll find out about The Rock’s participation at WrestleMania 41 eventually. However, even though there have been rumors suggesting a plan for his appearance on major events considering his Hollywood commitments, it doesn’t seem to alleviate the concerns of wrestling fans.

It was quite anticipated by wrestling enthusiasts that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would appear to contest Roman Reigns’ position as the Tribal Chief. However, the truth is, The Rock can only blame himself for this expectation. His hype video predominantly focused on his past journey to Samoa and the title he received there as High Chief Seiuli, which may have fueled these assumptions.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but ponder who The Rock might be squaring off against if he decides to step into the ring at WrestleMania 41. Frankly, it’s still uncertain whether he’ll even compete at all. Is the grand spectacle of professional wrestling truly hanging in this balance, or is it a clever ruse to keep us guessing?

It seems plausible that WWE wants to keep WrestleMania 41 surprises for closer to the event, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s unpredictable nature adds an element of mystery regarding the Royal Rumble. This could imply that he was advised to be cryptic prior to the event, preventing the possibility of Roman Reigns or even The Rock himself from being eliminated as potential winners of the Royal Rumble. Even though John Cena is currently the front-runner, I’m not completely dismissing the idea of a surprising outcome just yet. Overall, I’m excited to see how things unfold in the coming weeks.

On Mondays at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, you can catch Monday Night Raw on your television. If you have a Netflix subscription, it’s also available there. With The Rock set to make more appearances in the coming months, let’s wait and see what exciting things he has planned for WrestleMania 41.
