The Rock has broken his silence about his upcoming WWE SmackDown appearance at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. Taking to social media, The Final Boss announced his return to WWE.
The former WWE Champion wrote, “Bold and disruptive. Unpredictable and dangerous. The Final Boss returns, LIVE on #SmackDown tomorrow at 8ET/7CT on @USANetwork.” His WWE WrestleMania 41 status has remained uncertain for months, but now, he has finally addressed the speculation.
Shortly after the announcement, WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H reacted, saying, “Strap in. When The Final Boss shows up at this time of year, the audience knows absolutely anything is possible. Everything could change in an instant.”
The repeated mention of “The Final Boss” by both, The Rock and Triple H has fueled speculation about a possible return to his villainous persona. Adding to the intrigue, The Rock’s recent appearance at WWE RAW’s Netflix Premiere further confused fans, as he shared warm interactions with Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns — two superstars many expected him to face at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
Many also believe The Final Boss might return to announce the rumored location for WWE WrestleMania 42. Amid these developments, The Rock has officially broken his silence and issued a strong warning.
