The Rock has given WWE fans some insight into what it looks like when he makes his way to the ring.

At the end of WWE Bad Blood in Atlanta, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson made a surprising appearance at the end of the night as his cousin Roman Reigns stood in the ring side-by-side by with the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and Jimmy Uso, who reunited with Reigns at the show.

As he stood by the entrance area, The Rock had the People’s Championship on his left shoulder, he held up five fingers in the air, then did a throat slash, held his fingers in the air, and walked to the back. That was the end of Bad Blood.

In a video posted on social media, The Rock was shown walking backstage at the State Farm Arena while he greeted stunned onlookers, who welcomed him back to WWE while having shocked looks on their faces. In his message, Rock noted that it was emotional for him because he loves being part of WWE.

The Final Boss. The Final Backstage Walk. Minutes before surprising the sold out Atlanta crowd – I start feeling the energy and mana as soon as I start to walk to my holding position. Sounds crazy but it’s hard to contain, and this s**t starts getting emotional

Connection is real. Love U back. Grateful man. ~ The Final Boss of @WWE

The Rock May Not Be In A WrestleMania 41 Match

After his involvement at WrestleMania 40, it has been expected by many people that The Rock would step into the ring at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas as well. However, a new report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter suggests that as of right now, The Rock may not be in a match at WrestleMania 41 after all.

There have been rumors of a possible Rhodes vs. Rock vs. Reigns match at WrestleMania 41, but it may not happen at all.

It was also noted that Rock’s WrestleMania 41 plans may be kept secret from others in the company, so there’s a lot of uncertainty about his role at WWE’s biggest show of the year.
