WWE Legend return could shake up WrestleMania 41 plans

The WrestleMania 41 landscape might see another significant shift with potential Stone Cold Steve Austin involvement. The Texas Rattlesnake’s return could particularly impact The Rock’s positioning in the title picture.

During a recent interview with Adrian Hernandez, Rhodes mentioned that next year’s Show of Shows plans might surprise everyone. This statement adds to speculation about potential high-profile returns shaping the road to WrestleMania 41.

The Rock’s current position as The Final Boss and his history with Austin creates intriguing possibilities for storyline developments. However, these scenarios remain speculative, with no official confirmations from WWE.

Randy Orton hints at possible WWE Championship shot after targeting Cody Rhodes

Randy Orton’s path to the Undisputed WWE Championship appears clearer after recent developments on Monday Night RAW. The Viper has shown increasing interest in Rhodes’ reign, setting up potential confrontations in the coming weeks.

Rhodes currently finds himself managing multiple challengers, with Kevin Owens also in the mix. This complex dynamic adds pressure to his championship defense strategy, particularly as Royal Rumble 2025 approaches.

The situation gains additional significance considering John Cena’s announced retirement tour and Royal Rumble participation. This timing aligns with speculation about potential championship scenarios leading into WrestleMania 41.

Wrestling analyst Sam Roberts highlighted one possible outcome. “Now, we’re talking the what if scenarios are anything from, you know, who’s gonna win the Royal Rumble to face Cody Rhodes? What if Randy Orton takes the title? Now this one has to go. Maybe John Cena wins the Royal Rumble, Randy Orton wins the WWE Championship, now you’ve got your WrestleMania match. There’s so many ways you could go,” Roberts explained.
