The Rock at Elimination Chamber: Triple H Clears Up Dwayne Johnson’s Situation at Perth

Ever since he has been back, fans have been looking forward to the next appearance of Dwayne Johnson. We last saw him on SmackDown 02/16 as he closed off the show without revealing when he would appear in WWE next. There was a rumor that we would get to see Johnson turn up in Perth this weekend at Elimination Chamber.

Unfortunately, Triple H had to take it upon himself to burst that bubble. In a recent podcast interview, Paul Levesque shed light on the topic for everyone waiting to see The Rock at the event.

Triple H acknowledges The Rock’s appearance rumors and turns down the prospect at EC

Several weeks ago, The Sunday Times recovered some e-mails under the freedom of information laws of Australia and found a conversation between Perth city officials and WWE. The officials had demanded the promotion to bring The Brahma Bull to the ‘City of Lights’. This sparked rumors and speculations that Dwayne Johnson could come to this year’s Elimination Chamber. While talking to Xav & Michelle on their show, Triple H talked about this speculation. He straight-up turned down the rumors. “This show will be spectacular, and nobody will miss The Rock.”

As this all came to be, his schedule is quite tight as you can imagine. So we have him for a lot of events. Unfortunately, this was not one of them,” said the CCO of WWE in the podcast episode.

After revealing DJ’s absence from the PLE, HHH eased the pain of the fanbase by ensuring that the show would still be ‘spectacular’. Moreover, he has promised that the leading wrestling promotion has him booked for several events to come. But what exactly could they have in store for the Hollywood star in the future?

What could WWE be planning for The Rock’s future?

After joining TKO as a new board member, Dwayne Johnson’s connection with WWE is seemingly permanent. To make things better, he teased his in-ring return through various promos. After the last few additions to the storyline, we got to see that ‘Hollywood Heel Rock’ is back in full swing.

Although Johnson has joined The Bloodline, fans on the internet highly doubt that he has truly turned heel. There is speculation that the former wrestler is pretending to be on his cousin’s side, only to betray him at WrestleMania 40. Further down the road, this would lead to Dwayne Johnson facing The Tribal Chief.

Now that Triple H has confirmed his appearance in future events, this speculation might come true. When do you think The Rock will make an in-ring appearance?
