Speculation is running wild about Stone Cold potentially returning to help WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 following last weekend’s shocking events. At WWE Elimination Chamber: Toronto, John Cena turned heel and joined forces with The Rock, leaving fans stunned.
For over two decades, Cena dominated WWE as a top babyface, but last weekend, he finally embraced his darker side. Fans had long demanded a heel turn, and John Cena delivered in shocking fashion. Not only did he tap into his darker side, but he also aligned with his former rival, The Rock, now referred to as “The Final Boss.”
With Cena and The Rock forming an alliance, Cody Rhodes now faces a massive challenge, standing alone without allies. Speculation has begun that he might receive help at WrestleMania 41 from none other than Stone Cold.
Stone Cold and The Rock share a legendary rivalry, having battled at three WrestleManias (15, 17, and 19). Many expect Stone Cold to return, help Cody Rhodes, and confront his former nemesis, The Rock, who has been causing chaos in WWE for the past year.
As anticipation builds, the WWE Hall of Famer has addressed whether he plans to return and support Rhodes after what transpired this past weekend in Toronto.
Stone Cold addresses speculation about a WWE WrestleMania 41 return
Stone Cold addressed speculation about his WWE return during his appearance on The Schmo podcast. When asked if he planned to return and help Cody Rhodes, he dismissed the speculation, stating that he hasn’t been in contact with anyone in WWE.
He stated, “I haven’t been in contact with anybody, so I guess anything can happen, but I’m here to run the Mint 400 and that’s what my sights are set on. I’m not looking to Mania. I’m looking to the Mint 400. I’ve got a brand new left knee, it’s my first race back, and I’m gonna go out there and kick ass to see if I can do it as well as I can.” [H/T: Fightful]
The last time fans saw Stone Cold in WWE was at WrestleMania 38, where he came out of retirement to defeat Kevin Owens. However, his name has remained a constant topic of discussion among fans hoping for another return. Only time will tell if Stone Cold steps back into the ring to help Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
