The main highlight of the past episode of WWE NXT on CW Network, themed New Year’s Evil, was The Rock’s historic participation, marking his first time stepping into the ring at WWE’s developmental territory.
In a brief promo, Rock maintained his babyface character, thanking the audience for the historic moment WWE is going through, referencing last night’s RAW.
However, when speaking about RAW, Rock mentioned the hug he gave to Cody Rhodes, revealing that many people have been questioning him about this action. Rock then recalled 2024, when he was questioned for attacking Rhodes. Rock stated that everyone should shut up and just enjoy his presence. The tone of his speech was humorous.
With the noticeable change in his character, different from the aggressive tone adopted last year, The Rock is practically ruled out for WrestleMania 41.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, due to the recording schedule for Moana, where he will be a voice actor, Rock won’t have space in his schedule to return to the ring at WrestleMania, similar to what happened in 2024.
Despite all this, there are those in WWE who believe Rock might still participate in the event, even though the chances of this happening are very low.
