Uncertainty Surrounds The Rock’s WrestleMania Status

The Rock WWE

The Rock is in control of his WWE destiny.

According to a recent report, The Rock isn’t currently scheduled to appear at WrestleMania 41. The report surprised fans as it has long been believed the star would return to the ring to face Cody Rhodes at the event.

WWE even appeared to set the table for the bout on the Raw after WrestleMania 40. It should be noted that it was Rock who pinned Rhodes on the opening night of the show.

However, while responding to a fan on social media, The Rock told the commenter not to listen to that “bullsh*t.”

The Hollywood megastar made his most recent return to WWE television at Bad Blood, staring down Roman Reigns Cody Rhodes, and Jimmy Uso from the top of the ramp.

The Ball Remains In The Rock’s Court

In a new update on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer said that as of Thursday (October 10th), Rock wasn’t confirmed for the show. However, he emphasised that if the star wants to work the show, that’s exactly what will happen.

He said “It’s bullsh*t!” So somebody goes is it true you’re not doing Mania? And he says it’s bullsh*t. Well, he was not confirmed for the show as of Thursday, so if something changed I’ll find out. He wants to do it, he’s doing it. It’s up to him obviously.

As long as it’s conformed by whenever it needs to be confirmed… You know what? It could be confirmed any time.

They want to know obviously going into the Royal Rumble where they’re going, and at that point we’ll see.

There remains no word on when The Rock will return to WWE television.
