Could Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson make a surprise return at SummerSlam? Speculation grows as WWE keeps fans guessing.

Could the WWE Universe witness Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s triumphant return at Saturday’s SummerSlam in Detroit’s Ford Field? Wrestling Observer Radio’s Dave Meltzer discussed the intriguing possibility, but when he reached out to WWE for clarification, representatives have yet to address the speculation surrounding the former wrestling icon turned Hollywood star. Meltzer revealed that he inquired about any potential surprise appearances, to which the response was a tantalizing “I don’t know, maybe.”

While it remains uncertain if Dwayne Johnson will grace the event, if he were to make a comeback, it would undoubtedly be for the massive gathering of 50,000 fans in Detroit for this epic show. Meltzer noted, “So, who knows? I mean, he could do it. I don’t know if Dwayne Johnson will come back, but if he’s going to do it for something, it’s gonna be for 50,000 fans in Detroit, which is this show.”

The ongoing Hollywood actors and writers strike has led to speculation that familiar faces from the entertainment industry might return to the wrestling ring. The schedule openings resulting from the strike could provide an opportune moment for both The Rock and John Cena to make appearances. In recent years, both have sporadically returned to WWE due to their busy movie filming schedules.

Could The Rock Confront Grayson Waller At SummerSlam?

One potential matchup that could fuel excitement is a clash between The Rock and Grayson Waller. Waller has taken it upon himself to disrespect The Rock at every available opportunity, making him a likely candidate for a confrontation with the legendary wrestler-turned-actor. Waller’s continuous taunts have succeeded in grabbing The Rock’s attention, leading to a response on social media. Waller seized the moment and gleefully embraced the attention from the “Great One” himself. His calculated efforts to provoke The Rock have fueled even more intrigue and anticipation among fans.

Adding fuel to the fire, Waller recently put his own spin on The Rock’s signature move, The People’s Elbow, sparking further speculation about a potential showdown between the two. The Rock, to this point, has not responded again.

As the excitement builds for SummerSlam, WWE fans can’t help but wonder if The Rock will grace the ring with his electrifying presence. It’s potentially a long shot, but the environment might be right if The Rock has the time and the inclination. Whether he accepts Waller’s challenge or not, the possibility of The Rock’s return has ignited fervent discussion and anticipation, making this one of the most highly anticipated events in WWE history.
