The Rock is set to appear on Friday Night SmackDown this week and everyone is waiting to see what The Final Boss will say. It’s been rumored that he could be announcing the location for WrestleMania 42, but it seems that there could be more to his appearance.
After The Rock announced his appearance on SmackDown on Thursday night he posted a comment on his own Instagram post which said that he would be giving New Orleans a “big beautiful gift” and he also teased that he was planning to “f*** up a certain someone’s life.”
Ahead of SmackDown tonight The Rock took to social media to share a photo of the Rolex that Cody Rhodes gave him hours before the WrestleMania 40 night one main event. The Rock also added a cryptic line to the caption which said “Its time” when he posted the following:
“NEW ORLEANS, the Final Boss has arrived ✈️
This exact Rolex was the gift from our
@WWE Champion
@CodyRhodes to me, about 5 hours before our Wrestlemania match at WM40.
Its time.
