Officials in Australia are seemingly interested in bringing The Rock to next year's Elimination Premium Live Event in Perth, Australia.
WWE will host the 2024 Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event in Perth, Australia on February 24, 2024 and some of the biggest stars will perform at the event.
The Rock's last appearance took place on the September 15, 2023 edition of SmackDown where he had a promo exchange with Austin Theory. Alongside Pat McAfee, 'The Great One' laid Theory out with back-to-back People's Elbows.
It has come to light that tourism officials in Australia have launched an early bid to 'lure' the Hollywood megastar to Perth as part of negotiations with WWE.
In emails obtained by The Sunday Times, under freedom of information laws, tourism officials raised a string of questions about the deal with the WWE. It included whether they could lure stars down under for the Elimination Chamber at Optus Stadium on February 24.
“What ability does the host have to dictate key talent to participate in a standalone premium live event? For example, could we aim to secure WWE alumni such as Dwayne Johnson?” Tourism WA staff asked. However, WWE’s response was redacted.
This fuels speculation The Rock will join the Elimination Chamber event at Optus. The West Australian had previously revealed in September the growing speculation that 'The Great One' could make his return.
Some top stars are set to be a part of Elimination Chamber 2024
Wrestling stars Cody Rhodes, Logan Paul, and Australian-born Rhea Ripley are already lined up for the event and Tourism Minister Rita Saffioti dropped teased future announcements on more WWE stars coming to Perth.
“It’d be huge having someone like the Rock here in Western Australia. I saw he made a surprise appearance recently at a SmackDown! event, so of course, we’d love to see him in the ring as part of this exclusive event,” Ms Saffioti said.
“This is such a huge opportunity for Western Australia — WWE has millions and millions of loyal followers right around the globe, and we are so excited that we get to showcase what we have to offer as part of this exclusive event, right here in Perth.
“There’ll be more announcements made soon about other WWE stars making the trip to Perth, so stay tuned.”
We will now have to wait and see if The Rock makes his return at the Elimination Chamber 2024.
