That’s a lot of homes set to be body-slammed by WWE content. But is there room for WWE’s largest household name – The Rock?<\/p>\n Here, we weigh up why The Rock almost definitely will but could also not show up on WWE Raw on Netflix.<\/p>\n A year ago, The Rock shocked everyone when he showed up on the January 1, 2024, WWE Raw. The Rock caused shockwaves across the WWE Universe when he asked if he “should sit at the Head of the Table?”<\/span><\/p>\n This was a reference to his cousin, Roman Reigns, who was more than 1,000 days into a championship reign and had declared himself the Tribal Chief. Reigns had been anointed with an Ulu Fala as the head of the Anoa’i family Bloodline<\/a> by his father and uncle Afa and Sika in 2020. <\/span>Since then, everybody hoped The Rock might show up and challenge Reigns.<\/span><\/p>\n A dream match between the Reigns and The Rock was set for WrestleMania 40<\/a>. But that got scrapped when Cody Rhodes won the Royal Rumble and demanded a title shot against Reigns. <\/span><\/p>\n Rhodes took the gold from Reigns<\/a> at WrestleMania 40. But what we got in the build-up was The Rock returning to his eyebrow-raising, versace-wearing, trash-talking bad guy best.\u00a0<\/span>The newly-monikered “Final Boss”<\/a> even laced up his boots on night one of WrestleMania 40.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n The Rock and Reigns defeated Rhodes and Seth Rollins. On the WWE Raw after WrestleMania, The Rock bid goodbye to the fans and told Rhodes he would return for him.<\/span><\/p>\nWhy The Rock Will Appear on WWE Raw on Netflix Premiere<\/h3>\n
