The Rock returned to WWE television on the February 21st episode of WWE SmackDown, asking for the soul of Cody Rhodes.
Cody turned down The Rock's offer at WWE Elimination Chamber, but The Rock seemingly had a backup plan, giving the signal to John Cena to betray Cody.
Speaking on High Performance, Triple H was asked about The Rock's reaction to Cena turning heel.
"He loves it. Rock is at a place in his career with WWE; he wants to do what is best to help WWE. He's on the board. WWE, wrestling in general, is in his blood. For him now to be part of what we do, Final Boss. He's the biggest movie star in the world and comes to be a bad guy here and then talks about it in the third person, but he's this Final Boss character. It's fun to play and be able to come in to do. He has an insane schedule so he pops in and out and does little things here and little things there. It's great having him around and be part of it. He likes to be disruptive so in the moment where he's doing stuff with us at Elimination Chamber and the idea comes up about, 'What if Cody tells you to get lost and then John turns,' he's like, 'Holy shit. This is amazing.' We're all involved in this amazing moment that shifts the business. John resonates, like Rock does, beyond our business. He's a household name. You don't have to be a WWE fan to know who John Cena or Rock is," said Triple H.
The Rock has not been on WWE television since WWE Elimination Chamber. It is unknown if or when he will return.
Cena is set to challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41. You can find the current lineup for the event by clicking here.
