Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson hasn’t wrestled an official match since WrestleMania 32. He defeated Erik Rowan in an impromptu match that lasted only 6 seconds on that show.
According to a recent report from Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men podcast, The Rock is expected to be at Survivor Series this year.
“Hearing from a Source that The Rock is currently planned to be at this year’s Survivor Series,” Zarian Tweeted.
It was also noted that the tentative plans for Survivor Series this year is to run the event from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
This year’s Survivor Series will also be the 25th Anniversary of the Rock’s WWE in-ring debut, in a sense. Technically, The Rock wrestled under his birth name on one episode of Superstars in 1996 before this. He also wrestled 3 Dark matches under the name “Flex Kavana” before the Survivor Series that year. Flex Kavana also wrestled with the USWA throughout 96.
His in-ring WWE debut as Rocky Maivia was at Survivor Series 96, however, when he teamed with Jake Roberts, Marc Mero, and “The Stalker” (Barry Windham). They defeated the team of Jerry Lawler, Crush, Goldust, and Triple H.
Survivor Series is also where The Rock won his first-ever world title. At Survivor Series 98, Rock defeated Mankind in the finals of a tournament to determine a new WWF Champion. Rock would turn heel and align with the Corporation in the process.
