The Rock Not Scheduled For WrestleMania 41
The Rock’s current WWE storyline is seemingly not headed where people are expecting it to go.
The Great One is believed to be the force behind Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline. Ever since Sikoa took over the faction, many have expected it to finally lead to a match between The People’s Champion and his cousin Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41.
Per Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, however, the Hollywood star is currently not scheduled to compete at the Show of Shows next year from the Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada.
According to one WON source, The Rock’s schedule has gotten too heavy. He has already given word to WWE that he won’t be able to wrestle at the show next year.
The 52-year-old made his electrifying return to WWE during the Bad Blood PPV earlier this month on Ocotber 5, indicating that the next chapter of his current run would be written very soon.
Because he returned after Roman Reigns teamed up with Cody Rhodes to pick up a victory over The Bloodline, some have believed it’s leading towards a triple threat involving Rock, Rhodes and Reigns at the Grandest Stage of Them All.
If Rock’s return is not headed toward a WrestleMania match, the most obvious direction would be for him to lead The Bloodline in a WarGames match against Roman, Cody, and their other allies at the upcoming Survivor Series PPV on November 30.
Both Cody and Roman have teased a rematch for the Undisputed WWE title since the latter’s return to TV at SummerSlam. So it’s possible that the singles match to complete the trilogy would then be saved for Mania.
