Dwayne Johnson’s Unexpected Return on SmackDown Became a Headache Backstage for Some WWE Employees

The stunning return of Dwayne Johnson caused a tremendous storm on SmackDown. With the buzz increasing on social media and fans having a meltdown at the arena, Johnson had everyone talking. However, not all that glitters is gold as his celebrated return did end up putting some stress on people behind the curtain.

While fans had a joyful ride cherishing the company of The Great One, it seems like the WWE creatives and employees backstage had a hard time due to his return to WWE.

How Dwayne Johnson became a headache for backstage employees

After 4 years of prolonged wait and despair, the WWE universe finally saw the return of The Brahma Bull. The ovation was so grand that it reminded everyone why he will go down as one of the biggest entities in WWE history.

As the young cocky Austin Theory interrupted Pac McAfee, the former ring commentator had a fitting response as he gave the cue for The Rock to make a grand entrance. Then came the most electrifying music in all of Entertainment, shocking Theory.

However, despite the ambiance created, Johnson might have indirectly caused a major headache for WWE employees backstage. Being his classic self, DJ called Theory an “A-Hole”. He then voiced out to the WWE universe by encouraging the entire arena to call him the cuss word. But with WWE’s policy of bleeping out swear words, they had to censor it every time the crowd chanted the brutal word.

Well, unfortunately, the backstage team had their hands full with this segment. This was expected, considering the storm The Rock brings to WWE. And though he might have given a minor headache to some people backstage, he certainly made up for it with some special moments.

The wait of 4 long years

The 51-year-old did a huge favour to the beautiful fans present in Denver, Colorado by laying the SmackDown on Theory with a brutal spinebuster, only to follow it up with the People’s Elbow.

However, the night became even sweeter when he came face to face with his old rival, the 16-time world champion, John Cena, which led to a wholesome moment of embrace between the two superstars. The moment also marked the first time the duo has shared the screen in over 7 years. The last time they came together was to take down the Wyatt Family at WrestleMania 32.

Fellow superstars and fans were excited to see him back. With him being vocal about considering an appearance at WrestleMania 40, fans can’t wait to see what’s in store for the global giant.
