Survivor Series is about to get more electrifying with a great return

Is an Electrifying return on the cards for the fans at the Survivor Series event?
WWE has four vital shows in a calendar year, and while the first one had no attendance, the second one had limited fan attandenace, and the third will be a packed-out show. SummerSlam is the third important show for the WWE, but the wrestling juggernaut gears up to bring the brand war with an electrifying appearance at Survivor Series.
A rumor started doing rounds today that Hollywood’s biggest superstar will be ready to bring the “Millions and Millions” of his fans’ attention to WWE’s product at the show. It shouldn’t come as a surprise as WWE has used veteran superstars in the past to boost its ratings and overall pay-per-view interest.
There are rumbling talks about whether John Cena will also be involved in SummerSlam this year. WWE has suffered a lot in weekly ratings lately and is doing everything in its capacity to turn the fans towards its product. AEW is putting on phenomenal shows, and so the WWE Universe has questioned Vince’s creative direction.
This return by The Rock could also be the start of a WrestleMania 38 feud with his cousin Roman Reigns. We all know that The Tribal Chief demands respect, and he may ask the same from The Most Electrifying Man in All of Sports Entertainment only to receive a Rock Bottom and a People’s Elbow. The mere thought of the verbal smack between The Special Counsel to the Universal Champion and The Rock or Roman Reigns vs The Great One can excite fans.
With months to go before they finally square off against each other, The Rock can make sporadic appearances on Friday Nights and elevate this story or annoy the champion to the level that he demands a match at WrestleMania. It would also help Jey Uso bring out a new dimension of his character. A condition that removes Reigns from The Tribal Chief position and puts The Rock in his place will be a better idea.
The idea of The Rock and Roman Reigns headlining WrestleMania is an excellent way to build interest around that show well in advance. The Rock can’t make weekly or monthly appearances due to his commitments in the show business, but this will be a way to have him involved and keep the hype going till Mania.
