A break from Hollywood has allowed The Rock to return to WrestleMania, but he won’t be facing the opponent he was hoping for. Dwayne Johnson caused an unanticipated controversy when he chose to face Cody Rhodes despite the fans’ pleas for American Nightmare’s participation.
Now, whatever fans wanted will happen, and Brahma Bull’s upcoming appearance on WWE television will add spice to the bloodline-Cody Rhodes storyline leading up to WrestleMania. Fans can look forward to The Great One’s skills as he makes several appearances in the lead-up to the big event.
The Rock’s upcoming TV appearances before WrestleMania 40 revealed
Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania will host WrestleMania 40 on April 6th and 7th, and anticipation is high. Fans can’t wait to find out what The Rock has planned with just six weeks to go.
As WWE prepares for WrestleMania, fans can anticipate seeing The Rock on every single one of the company’s television shows. Beginning with this week’s event in Glendale, Arizona, he is officially confirmed for the next three editions of SmackDown. The Great One will be appearing:
- March 1st. Desert Diamond Arena. Glendale, AZ.
- March 8th. American Airlines Center. Dallas, TX.
- March 15th. FedExForum. Memphis, TN
The Rock has backed Roman Reigns and The Bloodline in their rivalry with Cody Rhodes, who is Reigns’ rival for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title. Already, his presence has resulted in events that are completely sold out. With The Rock on board, WrestleMania’s excitement has skyrocketed, and no one can predict what he has in store for the main event.
Jinder Mahal wants to wrestle The Rock at WrestleMania
An argument between Monday Night RAW’s The Rock and Jinder Mahal made news in early 2024. Mahal is aiming for a confrontation with a member of The Bloodline as he wants to be in the limelight as WrestleMania draws near. His deepest desire is to confront The Great One in person in WrestleMania.
Recently, Mahal and The Rock collaborated on a piece that was first shown on Raw Day 1. Even though The Rock laid him out, The Modern Day Maharaja respected his competence. The segment ended with Mahal getting a championship shot versus Seth Rollins and being the center of social media attention.
While appearing on ‘Extraaa Dhamaal’ on Sony Sports Network, he recently stated his intention to meet The Brahma Bull at WrestleMania XL in Philadelphia in order to settle their score.
Jinder Mahal said, “Every year I train as if I am going to be at WrestleMania. So hopefully. My dream opponent is, of course, Rock. As you guys all saw, we have a little bit of friction, so Rock would be my dream opponent at WrestleMania XL in Philadelphia. That would be an amazing moment.”
