Nothing specific has been revealed linking Johnson to the match, despite Rhodes's subliminal clues, such as his use of The Rock's trademark sunglasses.

Forgive the poor pun and reference, but it sure smells like The Rock might make his way back to WWE programming soon.

WWE's next premium live event will air in less than two weeks on Netflix and Peacock. That major event is SummerSlam, which has been around since the 1980s.
