They did not announce on tonight's RAW that Rock is appearing on the Netflix RAW, this means that he is not

The Rock is not going to make an unannounced appearance on the Netflix RAW because WWE is aiming for a strong viewership. If Rock was going to appear then they would have certainly announced that on tonight's RAW but they did not which means that he is not going to.


If Rock doesn't wrestle at WM then that will once again prove that he is a big fraud who lies to his fans by making false promises.

Rock plays by his rules. Not anyone elses. The laws don't apply to the King, because the King decides what the law is. Rock does not like unannounced appearances, because his ego lives for the big pop. This does not mean he's not showing up.

And if he does show up, he'll have a 20/30 minute segment anyway that will affect their scheduled time (even though they don't really have scheduled time on Netflix, from what we know), so everybody will immediately find out and flip on anyway.

The laws don't apply to the King if you are talking 16th century Britain sure but 20th/21st century they sure do, just ask Edward VIII..

If Rock doesn't wrestle at WM then I hope that all of his movies flop because the guy deserves it.
Feel free to merge this with your other 14 Rock threads you’ve made this week. And Rock would ONLY show up unannounced. That’s what he fucking does. He wants the shock and the electricity.

I’m sure he will be there. even if it’s unannounced it’s not like people aren’t waiting for him to show up on tv soon. People will watch hoping he shows up. Like others have said on here, it’s literally his thing to show up unannounced. just like last year when he did the same fucking thing on the first raw of the new year LOL

1) Are you new to pro wrestling? Unannounced surprise appearances do happen on wrestling shows. Him not being announced for Raw doesn't mean that he won't show up. Why not wait and see before coming to conclusions.

2) I don't recall Rock ever promising to wrestle at WM this year or it being promised by WWE. So you saying he's lying is nonsense.

The truth is we don't know what will happen because of his schedule. Why not just admit that instead of always having to project you know what is or isn't going to happen.

The Rocks last appearance was unannounced even. He has a history of making unannounced appearances.

Just chill and wait to see what happens. All this speculation on if or when The Rock appears and IF he wrestles at WrestleMania or who he wrestles at WrestleMania.... probably discussed online 10x more than either The Rock or WWE thinks about it. Plus during all of this constant speculation you're putting things in your own head about The Rock that he never said or promised. Nothings ever been promised or guaranteed. Don't work yourself in to being disappointed in something that no one ever said was going to happen.

He probably will show up at some point. Ill be surprised if it's the first RAW on Netflix considering they have pilled on that show already and there is plenty of time for him to show up after. Could be Royal Rumble or a random Smackdown or RAW. Logan Paul is more likely to appear on RAW next week than The Rock. They have other people who could return unannounced also.

Utterly dumb to say Rock doesn't like showing up unannounced when last time we saw him it was unannounced. Same as the time when he did his thing about "should I sit at the head of the table" last year.

It's very much possible. Im not hoping for it.. because I keep my expectations very low when it comes to WWE.. but it's a possibility. Will be watching full Raw in a long ass time anyways. Hoping for a good show atleast. With or without him.

Hawk Hogan confirmed that The Rock isnt showing up and that The Rock is selfish and thinks hes too good for wrestling.
He is too good for wrestling. He is a Hollywood megastar. Wrestling is niche chump change watched by a small group of nerds. The Rock is only somewhat involved because of his bloodline and the respect for wrestling that was instilled into him by his family. His grandfather was Peter Maivia, so he does have an undying respect for the days of the territories. Other than that, he's way too good for wrestling. A genuine star who should stay the hell away from this bullshit.

The Rock should stay retired, he's boring.

If I'm Netflix I'd far rather he shows up unannounced.

Announced appearances are great for popping a rating.

Unannounced appearances are far better for the long term, if you have an unannounced appearance people have FOMO from not watching. Anything can happen in the World Wrestling Federation! Entertainment!

If he does appear it's likely to be getting involved with the Tribal Chief match anyway, you can't really pre-announce that.
Dont have Hawk Hogan be a stupid "work🤪" on social media for that shit, that is very disrespectful to the Hulkster to have him working that worthless inferior jobber.

i dont want him to wrestle anymore. its like watching ri flair wrestle. the guy is old, its just sad.
he never had 1v1 match since he came back and for a good reason.
plus, he refuses to lose. every match that include him will result with either him winning or some lazy finish.

im not shitting on him (i dont like him and his character, i think its childish and stupid) but i still think he is waaaay past his prime.

Wierd strategy by Rock and WWE, if they would have announced 1 week ago that Rock is appearing on the Netflix RAW then they would have got a much higher viewership than what they are going to get now but whatever, I am happy that The Rock is showing up tonight. I admit that I was a bit pissed after reading all those rumours that he is not going to wrestle at WM but I am glad that Rock is keeping his promise.
