As WWE Raw gets ready to debut on Netflix, there have been hints about The Rock returning. While many fans expected him to appear during the Tribal Combat Match between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns, WWE has kept it a secret so far. Recently, WWE did something surprising that made it seem like they are preparing us for the return of “The Final Boss.”
Monday Night RAW is moving from USA Network to Netflix after almost 30 years on cable. The show on January 6, 2025, will feature big names like Roman Reigns, John Cena, Rhea Ripley, and CM Punk. But the real excitement is around the Tribal Combat match and the possibility of The Rock returning.
WWE recently released a promo video for the Netflix debut, including a quick two-second clip of The Rock from his WrestleMania 40 entrance. He hasn’t appeared since Bad Blood 2024 but is rumored to return, and this teaser has fans excited.
