With WrestleMania just hours away, the speculation surrounding a potential appearance by The Rock has intensified.
While he was last seen aligning with the newly turned heel John Cena at the WWE Elimination Chamber PLE, before departing to film a new movie, his status for WrestleMania remains unconfirmed. WrestleVotes had previously reported internal WWE speculation regarding a possible Rock sighting.
Adding to the intrigue, WWE has released new merchandise featuring The Rock in the lead-up to WrestleMania. As seen below, this development, while not a definitive confirmation, has led some to believe it could be a strategic move by WWE to capitalize on the significant buzz surrounding a potential return or appearance by “The People’s Champion.”
In the past, WWE has utilized new merchandise releases to coincide with the returns or debuts of highly anticipated stars, suggesting that The Rock might indeed have a role to play at WrestleMania 41.
