SmackDown on FOX: 5 major ways The Rock can surprise the WWE Universe

#1 Taking a bump and giving the rub to another superstar

The Rock hasn't taken a bump in quite a while. It has been a good part of 6 years since he took the fall for someone. He did have a physical interaction with Kane and The Big Show at Royal Rumble 2015 when he helped Roman Reigns win the Royal Rumble.

However, that didn't end well as he was visibly angry at the boos he received for helping the polarizing Roman Reigns. As mentioned, The Rock hasn't been allowed to take any bumps due to the WrestleMania 29 fiasco that delayed the Hercules filming by quite a bit.

However, that doesn't mean that any little bump is going to cause the same type of injury. He was wrestling the main event match, and unfortunately for him, his decision to excessively bulk up during the time worked against his favor.

Knowing what could happen, The Rock could change things. However, a small bump wouldn't hurt him. The idea behind this is that he is confronted by a major superstar, perhaps even The Fiend, and takes a major bump for him. If The Fiend were to attack The Rock, it would be a huge boost for him heading into Hell in a Cell 2019.
