WWE Drops New Rock Merch Just Hours Before WrestleMania

With WrestleMania 41 just hours away, fans are fired up with one burning question: Is The Rock making a surprise appearance?

While WWE has kept tight-lipped on his status, signs are pointing to something big. The last time fans saw The Rock, he aligned himself with the newly turned heel John Cena at WWE Elimination Chamber before stepping away to film a movie. Since then, rumors have swirled nonstop—and now they’re heating up again.

WrestleVotes recently reported that there’s internal speculation within WWE that The Rock could make a return this weekend. The company hasn’t confirmed anything, but what they have done is drop brand-new Rock merchandise right in time for WrestleMania. That move didn’t go unnoticed.

In the past, WWE has timed merch drops with surprise returns or massive moments involving top names. So naturally, fans are reading into it hard. Is this just smart marketing—or WWE’s way of teasing a secret role for “The People’s Champion” on the biggest stage of the year?

Whether he shows up in a segment, interferes in a match, or simply stands on the ramp to raise an eyebrow, the energy around The Rock is very real—and WWE seems to know exactly what they’re doing.
