To send the WWE Bad Blood 2024 premium live event off the air, it was mentioned that The Rock has finally returned to television. It happened after the main event match that was chaotic enough in which Roman Reigns picked up a pinfall win over Solo Sikoa in a tag team match. However, it was the return of the People’s Champion that soaked the spotlight.
Following his appearance at Bad Blood PLE, The Rock also went on Instagram and uploaded a video of himself cutting a promo about WWE’s current status. He was upset about how things are ongoing around The Bloodline but it was also made clear that things will change soon. He also made it sure to take shots at Cody Rhodes and John Cena while walking by the side of the production trucks.
