Major Dwayne the Rock Johnson Heel Clue Spotted in SmackDown Entrance Before WrestleMania XL Match

The Rock heel turn looks improved now, with WWE adding a minute variation to his usual look. Weeks have gone since The Great One redeemed his unique villainous aura in the division, abruptly sliding into Cody Rhodes’ business.

Later, he officially embraced the heel turn during the WrestleMania 40 press event. Now, amidst the wild speculations of WWE, adding more layers to his heel turn, a very minute development on that path came up in the fans’ eagle-eyed lens.

The Rock’s small change in look advocates for his full-blown heel-turn

In a recent episode of SmackDown, Cody Rhodes dramatically came across Roman Reigns, and even more dramatically gave up his WrestleMania to him in a shocking segment. Ever since fans went into a frenzy and burst into the unbridled “Rocky Sucks” and “We Want Cody” chants all over the place at any WWE programming.

It eventually culminated in the company, twisting the script and letting Cody take the lead back in the WrestleMania kick-off event. Although Rhodes by then replanted himself in his deserved spot, but company wanted to make the best of the anti-Rock emotion by officially turning him into a heel and making him unite with his Samoan brothers another Bloodline.

The Rock also pulled it out with ease, donning his iconic Holywood Rock gear on TV. To add to that evolution, WWE changed the eye color of the Brahma Bull to bright red to portray his monster aura more acutely.

Does that mean he’s cooking something more absurd down the road? Let’s dig deeper.

Is The Rock’s heel turn going to take a more intense turn? Explained

According to the Former 24/7 Champion Peter Rosenberg, WWE teased another major betrayal inside the Bloodline in a recent episode of SmackDown.

After finishing up a heated segment aimed at Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins on the blue brand, Roman Reigns seemed to be a bit off the place. When he went on to pose with fellow Bloodline members, he heard The Rock initiating his if you smell catchphrase and chose to cut him right away. Later, he asked for an acknowledgment from the Great One, which the latter did.

But the exchanges between them seemed to give a glimpse of a future feud between the cousins. Maybe The Rock will end up ditching his cousin as early as WrestleMania 40. At least, that’s what Rosenberg believes.

It will be interesting to see how WWE chooses to pan out the rest.
