THE Rock is one of the most recognisable faces in the history of WWE.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was heavily involved in the build-up to WrestleMania 40, teaming with Roman Reigns in the main event of night 1.

Now in an authority role, rather than an in-ring one, The Rock tried to get Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes to sell him his soul ahead of Elimination Chamber.
However, Rhodes refused, and instead John Cena shocked the world by turning on Rhodes and siding with The Rock, turning heel for the first time in his career in the process.
There are unconfirmed rumours that a third man will join Cena and The Rock in their authority faction, with names such as Seth Rollins and Jey Uso rumoured to be turning heel to join the Brahma Bull.
The Rock has only made a handful of appearances on WWE TV since WrestleMania 40, firstly to hand Cody Rhodes a note on the RAW after WrestleMania.
Then, The Final Boss appeared at Bad Blood, and held up three fingers.
Following Bad Blood, he appeared at an episode of RAW, and episode of NXT and an episode of Smackdown before he shocked the world with Cena at Elimination Chamber.
The Rock is not currently scheduled to compete at WrestleMania 41, but his involvement in the build up to night 2’s main event suggests he may show up.
John Cena sold his soul to the Rock at Elimination Chamber, and will face Cody Rhodes in the main event of night 2.
Since his last match at WrestleMania 40, Dwayne Johnson has appeared more as an authority figure than an in-ring competitor.
Alongside his rumoured appearance with Cena, there are rumblings about who the third man in his authority faction may be, as he has teased that another person will sell their soul to him.
But, any appearance by The Rock at WrestleMania is yet unconfirmed, so he may not show up in Las Vegas at all.
