This week’s Raw was another banger of an episode. It saw the wrath of The Rock close out the sold-out show at the Allstate Arena in Chicago. Fans witnessed the blood bath of Cody Rhodes after a vicious attack by the self-proclaimed ‘Final Boss’. However, fans noticed a subtle alleged tease by WWE for the return of Rocky’s two arch nemeses, John Cena and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, at WrestleMania 40.

The People’s Champion laid out a sadistic attack on Rhodes. During the beatdown, a trailer with pictures of The Rock’s all-time rivals, Austin and John Cena, is parked. It is unclear if it was a coincidence or if it was done on purpose. However, it creates a sight of ‘cinema’ to behold for the fans. Many fans have speculated on the return of the two former champions at WrestleMania to aid the American Nightmare.

Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock have a rich history. The two stars were the backbone of WWE’s Attitude Era competing in multiple WrestleMania main events. The Cenation Leader is another tough rival of the Brahma Bull, who has been at loggerheads with the Hollywood Star for the majority of his career.

If the speculations are true, fans might witness one of the biggest WrestleMania moments. At the moment, it is unclear if it was serendipitous or if it was done deliberately. Only time will tell what’s in store for Mania while getting the Avengers Assembled for Cody Rhodes to fight The Bloodline.
