As previously reported by Chris Featherstone, WWE has opted to move forward with its creative plans as if The Rock will not appear at WrestleMania 41. It was said that The plans can change at any time, and WWE is interested in using him if he becomes available.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful followed up with a tweet noting that, ultimately, The Rock can do what he wants, but Featherstone’s report is accurate. This is after much speculation that The Rock would return to do a match with Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41.
Fightful Select has a follow-up report noting that “The Rock’s Bad Blood appearance was to get him on screen and didn’t have a major direction or plot point they were furthering. “ Those in WWE knew he could be appearing at the show before finding out for sure that week. The Rock was in plain view when he showed up before the show.
Fightful was told that Rhodes and The Rock “filmed something” at the Moana 2 premiere. However, it was said that whatever it was may or may not end up seeing the light of day. The context on that was not provided.
It was said that anyone reporting that The Rock is “100 percent out” for WrestleMania isn’t being genuine, as no one who knows The Rock would give out that information.
