Before stepping away on Raw after WrestleMania XL, The Rock hinted at targeting Cody Rhodes upon his return. With the road to WrestleMania fast approaching, the timing seems perfect for The People’s Champion to make his comeback. As a result, rumors are intensifying that The Rock could use his TKO powers to win the 2025 Royal Rumble and later on challenge The American Nightmare in Sin City.
Just when everything seems settled at the Royal Rumble PLE, The Great One could use his TKO board member powers to enter the match at #31. His surprise arrival would undoubtedly send the Lucas Oil Stadium into a frenzy, giving him the perfect opportunity to secure his spot at WrestleMania. Entering after all other competitors, The Final Boss could go on to win the Rumble, setting up a showdown with Cody Rhodes.
This angle would give The Rock instant heat from the WWE Universe, amplifying his villainous character as he builds towards WrestleMania. The Final Boss persona thrives on doing things on his own terms, making it likely that The Rock would steal a star’s rightful spot at WrestleMania. Such a move would disrupt WWE’s plans, creating a massive shift in the storyline. This could make WrestleMania in Sin City a generation-defining event.

Moreover, this would create a huge surprise for the WWE Universe, as such an angle has never unfolded in Royal Rumble history. Reports also suggest that The Great One is currently the favorite to win the 30-man Rumble match in 2025. There is a strong possibility the Hollywood actor could make his move in Indianapolis next month.

Roman Reigns is currently scheduled to face Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat for the Ula Fala. Given The Rock’s history with The Bloodline, there is a possibility he could return during this match. The Hollywood star might also appear to mark WWE’s new era on Netflix without revealing his future in the company.
The Rock and John Cena are both planned for RAW's Netflix debut.
