WWE SmackDown concluded with a thrilling finale this week, featuring powerhouse names like Roman Reigns, The Rock, Cody Rhodes, and Seth Rollins.
The tension escalated as Rollins and Rhodes embraced The Rock’s challenge for a WrestleMania XL tag team showdown against The Bloodline.
In an unexpected twist, emotions flared when Cody Rhodes couldn’t contain himself and slapped The Rock. The Great One’s remarks about Rhodes’ family history struck a nerve, labeling him as an unplanned mistake, leading to a heated confrontation.

Amidst the drama, Seth Rollins’ entrance to the ring drew attention. Unlike the other stars, Rollins made his way through the crowd without his signature theme music.
While this could have been due to time constraints, fans perceived it as a slight towards the World Heavyweight Champion. In a show of solidarity, the audience serenaded Rollins with his theme song, showcasing their support and appreciation.
Rollins’ journey back to the ring has been marked by determination and resilience.
Despite sustaining a knee injury during a title defense against Jinder Mahal, Rollins opted for rehab over surgery, aiming for a WrestleMania XL return. His recent clearance for in-ring action has heightened anticipation among fans.
Reports indicate Rollins’ imminent return to the squared circle, with an appearance scheduled at the “Road to WrestleMania” live event in Louisiana.
While his opponent remains undisclosed, Rollins’ readiness for competition is palpable.
With WrestleMania XL looming, Rollins finds himself pulled into dual responsibilities. Alongside Cody Rhodes, he’s set to engage in a high-stakes tag team clash against The Bloodline.
Additionally, following his altercation with Drew McIntyre, Rollins may make his television in-ring comeback sooner than expected, possibly gracing Monday Night RAW with his presence.
As the countdown to WrestleMania XL intensifies, anticipation builds for Rollins’ triumphant return to the spotlight, poised to deliver unforgettable moments inside the ring.
