On Friday SmackDown made the jump to FOX for the big 20th anniversary show, and The Rock finally made his return to WWE programming.
The Great One, Becky Lynch and Baron Corbin kicked off the show with a segment that saw Rock and Lynch get physical with Corbin, and ahead of SmackDown Randy Orton challenged The Rock to a match when he posted the following:
“.@TheRock I see you will be at #SmackdownOnFox this Friday. How about you & I have a discussion about who’s the greatest 3rd generation of all time and we answer that question April 5th in Tampa At Wrestlemania 36. A vipers sense of smell is unmatched. I smell what you’re cooking”
The Rock didn’t really confirm one way or another whether or not he’s interested in the match, but he did crack a joke about his history with Orton.
“U think Bob O Sr & Chief Maivia along with our pops’ Bob Jr & the Soulman ran up and down those roads for decades taking bumps just so we can sell out WM36 so you can RKO my ass thru the earth. My body’s still recovering from that Evolution beatdown you gave me at WM20 😂”
