WWE fans speculate The Rock’s return after Triple H teases SmackDown surprise
WWE fans are buzzing with speculation ahead of the return of SmackDown to the USA Network, hoping for a significant surprise involving Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The excitement was fueled after WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Levesque, aka Triple H, teased fans on social media with a cryptic “wait and see” comment following the announcement of a steel cage match between Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa for Friday's SmackDown premiere.
While the cage match is meant to prevent outside interference, fans are anticipating involvement from Roman Reigns, who returned to WWE at SummerSlam after losing to Rhodes at WrestleMania XL. Reigns' presence adds to speculation about The Bloodline storyline, which could see further twists. Despite no concrete evidence, fans believe The Rock might return, with some envisioning a monumental tag team match involving Reigns, The Rock, and Jimmy Uso against Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and Tama Tonga at Survivor Series.
Fans are also predicting that this episode of SmackDown could set up future high-profile matches between Reigns, Sikoa, and potentially even The Rock and Rhodes. WWE has yet to confirm any of these rumors, but the highly anticipated episode promises to be a major event.
