With 2024 in the rearview mirror, WWE and WWE fans are looking forward to WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, Nevada. According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE Champion Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s current plans are not completely clear.
“My impression is that (Rock) is going to wrestle. It’s not written in stone that he’s going to wrestle,” Meltzer said. “Whatever he wants to do, that’s what they’re doing. (Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena) is a match that was on the card as of a few days ago.”
On “Raw” after WrestleMania 40, The Rock shared a moment with Cody Rhodes, perhaps teasing a rivalry between the two. According to Meltzer, at the time the book was written, Johnson was scheduled to face Rose.
“The angle they took[from WrestleMania 40]was The Rock and Cody Rhodes,” Meltzer said, adding that WWE isn’t committing to a one-year reign for Cody Rhodes because he was a former member of the Roman Reigns era. He pointed out that this was because he was the face of an untested franchise. On top. However, regardless of the title situation, Rose was scheduled to face “The Great One” this year.
“If Cody wasn’t the champion, it would be (The Rock’s People’s Championship),” Meltzer continued, explaining that a match for both the WWE Championship and the People’s Championship is likely. “Let’s take a look.”
Johnson is rumored to be taking part in the premiere episode of WWE Raw, which airs on Netflix in Los Angeles, California, marking his first WWE appearance since his mysterious return at WWE Bad Blood in October.
