The Rock made an electrifying return to kick off WWE’s Netflix era, leaving the WWE Universe in awe. With a stern demeanor, The Final Boss shocked fans by seemingly turning babyface for the first time in nearly a year. Adding to the surprises, The Great One later raised a toast with his archrival Cody Rhodes, leaving fans puzzled and buzzing with speculation about what’s next.

In a video shared by The American Nightmare on his Instagram story, Rhodes and The Rock were seen raising a toast to WWE’s success. Despite their heated rivalry over the past year, The Brahma Bull appeared genuinely impressed with the 39-year-old’s dedication and attitude, signaling a newfound mutual respect between the two icons.

The Moana star praised the Undisputed WWE Champion, acknowledging his efforts in carrying the company on his shoulders. In response, Cody Rhodes displayed a respectful demeanor toward the TKO board member. It appears the WWE legend has put his heated rivalry with The American Nightmare behind him, signaling a possible new chapter in their dynamic.

Additionally, The People’s Champion acknowledged Roman Reigns as the true Tribal Chief, honoring him with the Ula Fala following the intense Tribal Combat. With this gesture, The Rock has left the WWE Universe in a state of deep confusion about his future with the company. Fans are now eagerly awaiting further updates on The Great One’s next move.

In a surprising turn, The Rock returned as a babyface during Raw’s Netflix debut. He offered praise to both Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, signaling the resolution of his feuds with the two stars. With no loose ends left, it’s unclear what the future holds for The Final Boss in WWE. The WWE Universe is now questioning his potential involvement going forward.

It seems unlikely that The Great One will be involved in WrestleMania 41. Rumors had previously suggested potential clashes with Rhodes or Reigns. However, his surprising show of respect for both stars on Raw has seemingly ruled out any major storyline with them.

The Hollywood megastar’s packed schedule makes frequent WWE appearances unlikely. The Final Boss appears to have faded into the background, likely missing WrestleMania 41. Therefore, on Raw, he put over WWE’s top faces in Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. This gesture solidified his support for the current stars.
