The main event at WWE Bad Blood 2024 was nothing short of spectacular, featuring the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes teaming up with his longtime rival, Roman Reigns, against Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu from the latest iteration of the Bloodline.
Witnessing Reigns back in action, especially alongside Rhodes, felt surreal for many fans.
After a hard-fought battle against the Bloodline, Rhodes and Reigns enjoyed a moment of mutual respect, celebrating their victory together—until the atmosphere suddenly shifted. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s iconic entrance music blasted through the arena, and he made a stoic appearance on stage, championship belt in hand.
Johnson simply stood there, counting on his fingers before signaling a decisive gesture with his thumb across his throat. It left fans wondering if the message was aimed at Reigns, Rhodes, or both.
His return carries significant weight for the Bloodline, especially with his influential role at TKO, the parent company of WWE.
Starting as Rocky Maivia in the WWF, Johnson’s trajectory changed when he joined the Nation of Domination and transformed into The Rock, a character who quickly won over the audience despite being portrayed as a heel. He became a fan favorite and engaged in legendary rivalries with Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, John Cena, Hulk Hogan, and many others.

The Rock’s accolades include an impressive eight WWE Championship wins, two WCW Championships, and five Tag Team Championships, alongside being a sixth Triple Crown Champion. He also won the Royal Rumble in 2000 and the Deadly Games WWF Championship Tournament.
After achieving superstardom in Hollywood, Johnson’s return to WWE aims to support Reigns in retaining his Undisputed WWE Championship. With The Rock back in the mix, fans are eagerly awaiting the next move.
