The most electrifying man in sports entertainment, The Rock, is all set to challenge the next episode of WWE's Monday Night RAW.

Dwayne Johnson, better known as The Rock, enjoys a huge fan base across the world. He is not only one of the most popular WWE Superstars to have ever stepped foot into the squared circle but also a huge Hollywood star. His 2021 release Red Notice became the most-watched film in the history of Netflix last year.

The former WWE Champion will be one of the special guests on The ManningCast this Monday for the NFL wild card playoff encounter featuring the Cardinals and Rams.

Meanwhile, WWE RAW is also set for a power-packed episode around the same time.

The former WWE Champion has already confirmed his presence on the NFL show, hosted by Peyton and Eli Manning. The 49-year-old will be live at 8:45 pm ET.


Could The Rock possibly return to the WWE?

There has been a lot of talk about the Great One's potential return to the WWE and a possible match against his cousin, Roman Reigns.

Wrestling Observer Newsletter's Dave Meltzer reported that the former WWE Champion was expected to appear at Survivor Series to spark a feud with Roman Reigns, which was planned to be concluded at WrestleMania.

Last year's edition of Survivor Series marked the 25th anniversary of The Rock's debut with Vince McMahon's company. The pay-per-view honored his rise to fame and also helped promote his film, Red Notice.

Much to the disappointment of fans, the legend was not present at the event and ultimately WWE changed its plans for WrestleMania. Brock Lesnar is now most likely to take on Roman Reigns at the Grandest Stage of Them All. Though the storyline has changed drastically, it would be interesting to see if the company once again decides to fuel the rumors of the Great One's return.
