WWE has just dropped a bombshell: The Rock is set to make a blockbuster appearance just before WrestleMania XL hits Philadelphia this weekend.
The legendary Brahma Bull is slated to step into the ring for a high-stakes tag team match on Saturday night, promising to shake up the wrestling world.
Rock’s return to the WWE scene post-Royal Rumble 2024 raised eyebrows, especially with Cody Rhodes seemingly making way for him to square off against Roman Reigns.

However, the unexpected “WeWantCody” movement by fans prompted a twist in plans, with The Great One embracing a villainous turn.
Now, he’s on a mission to hand Rhodes’ mother a belt adorned with her son’s title on it at The Show of Shows this weekend, adding fuel to the fiery anticipation surrounding WrestleMania.
In a massive pre-WrestleMania announcement, WWE took to their official X account to reveal The Rock’s scheduled appearance at WWE World tomorrow afternoon, amplifying the excitement among fans.
Meanwhile, former WWE writer Vince Russo recently weighed in on the dynamic between The Rock and Roman Reigns, suggesting that The Great One’s comeback has overshadowed Reigns on the Road to WrestleMania XL.
While acknowledging Reigns’ prowess as a performer, Russo emphasized the immense presence The Rock brings to the table, making it inevitable for anyone to be cast in his shadow.
The recent havoc wreaked by The People’s Champion and Reigns on Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes during Monday night’s WWE RAW has only intensified the anticipation for WrestleMania XL.
As tensions escalate, fans are left wondering if Rhodes and Rollins will have their chance at redemption against The Bloodline come WrestleMania weekend.
