You never know when The Rock might make an appearance on WWE programming as The Final Boss briefly returned after the main event at Bad Blood back in October. Recently there’s been a lot of speculation regarding whether or not The Rock will be part of WrestleMania next year, and his status for Raw’s big premiere on Netflix is also a hot topic.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer recently noted that an appearance from The Rock hasn’t been confirmed for Raw’s premiere on Netflix, but there are some in WWE who believe it would make sense for him to be part of the show.
“We’ve heard nothing confirming Johnson on the show but those in the company we’ve talked with figure it makes sense just like we do, whether he’s committed to wrestling at WrestleMania or not.
It’s going to be the biggest TV show of the year except possibly the Raw after Mania but one would think the Netflix first show with all the pub it will get would be the biggest and he’s the biggest audience difference maker for WWE and Netflix under any circumstances. It would also be clear at that show as if he is doing Mania, he and [Cody] Rhodes (and perhaps [Roman] Reigns) should go hard with the angle on that show since it’ll be before the biggest audience of the year.”
