Fans saw him appear on an episode of Friday Night SmackDown along with his friend Pat McAfee. The return did spark many speculations and fan theories. Unfortunately, they all were put to rest as the star was not seen in the following episodes. However, he might be soon returning once again to WWE and only one person besides The Rock knows when that will happen.

Who knows about Dwayne Johnson’s return to WWE?

Taking to Instagram, The Brahma Bull posted a few pictures with a family courtesy of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. As a part of his mission to meet 21 kids from the foundation before Christmas, he met Jaden Harden and his family. As mentioned by Johnson, Harden is a pro wrestling fan. Therefore, the theme was something related to his pro wrestling era. The Hollywood star mentioned that the two talked about pro wrestling and also Johnson gave him some insider news. As written by Johnson, “I told him a little secret 🤫 that may or may not involve some dude returning to WWE to lay the SmackDown on all their candy as**s 😉👋🏾.” This is a major hint by him after he made an appearance in September.

The last time we saw Dwayne Johnson at WWE was on the September 15 episode of SmackDown. There, the 51-year-old star, along with his friend Pat McAffe, made an appearance at the Ball Arena in Boulder, Colorado. After McAffe had a verbal confrontation with Austin Theory in the ring, Johnson entered after McAfee gave him the cue.

The People’s Champion was welcomed by the fans with a loud pop as the stadium roared with cheers. Following that, he decided to put Theory in his place as he delivered him his signature People’s Elbow. Following this, he addressed the crowd and was present in the arena. However, he did not participate in any fights that night.

However, the reason why he did not return after that might be because of his love for putting on a great show for his fans. Before he made his surprise return to WWE, he was present at the Pat McAfee Show. There, he talked about his long absence from WWE before his brief appearance on September 15. He said that it is not his schedule or his injuries that restrict him from appearing on WWE. Rather, it is the opportunity to put on a show for his fans that might defy expectations.
