#5 The Rock to return to WWE at Survivor Series?
There have been rumors floating around about The Rock possibly returning to WWE. While it is widely believed that The Great One will be back by WrestleMania 38 next year for a match against Roman Reigns, the exact time of his return was unknown.
Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men podcast has reported that the former WWE Champion is scheduled to return at Survivor Series this year.
"Hearing from a Source that The Rock is currently planned to be at this year's Survivor Series." said Zarian.
He further revealed that just like John Cena, The Rock will not be tied to any one brand and will be making appearances on both RAW and SmackDown.
“I can tell you, USA Network tentatively wants him on that Monday. By the way, he’s gonna go everywhere. This isn’t like a RAW storyline. He’s going to be on everything,” added Andrew Zarian.
It is believed that Roman Reigns' Head of the Table story could conclude at WrestleMania 38 when he takes on The Rock, who is also a member of Reigns' family.
