After a quiet last week of the year 2023, WWE made a banger return. As promised, they delivered a massive Raw Day One and it delivered possibly one of the biggest moments for 2024. The Rock made a sensational return and further made waves by calling out the Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns. It seems the Great One has taken some time to reflect on his deed.

The Brahma Bull took to ‘X’ to deliver his message about what he had experienced at Raw Day One. Despite being one of the most electrifying men in sports entertainment, he experienced goosebumps. Thanks to the massive pop upon the iconic start of his music the roof was blown off of Penchanga Arena in San Diego.

The People’s Champ is known for making iconic returns. Adding one more to his list, he livened up the crowd whose face was dropped owing to the return of Jinder Mahal. Even the Greatest of All Time, John Cena was enthralled by the prospects that the return of The Rock opened. Time will tell when the Brahma Bull will make his appearance next.

Triple H had big things planned for Raw Day One and had hyped up things by talking about the return of a former WWE Champion. The arena was filled with boos once Jinder Mahal entered, however, his demeaning banter soon ended after The Rock graced the scene.

Everyone, whether in the arena or those watching from their homes went bonkers. The adorable ring announcer, Samantha Irvin was also one of them, who leaped up screaming, “Oh my God“.

While praising her and calling her “dope“, the Rock shared a short but sweet message regarding Samantha Irvin’s reaction to seeing him return.

Love this. She’s dope. @SamanthaTheBomb @WWE

In the past few months, the Great One has become quite generous with his appearance in WWE. He was last seen in September 2023, when he confronted the Arrogant Austin Theory. However, his recent response carried more weight than his previous one because of the SAG-AFTRA strikes.

The Rock cleared Mahal and then expressed his desire to sit at the Head of the Table. With the crowd erupting in cheers, the Internet was filled with speculations about when the Great One might face the Tribal Chief. It would be interesting to see what all will be at stake when the greatest of the Samoan Lineage collides.
