The Rock made his earth-shattering return at the Bad Blood Premium Live Event last month. However, he has not been seen on WWE television since then, leaving fans wondering about his next appearance. With Survivor Series: WarGames on the horizon, the stage could be set for The Final Boss to re-enter the fray and make his highly anticipated return to the story.

In the latest episode of SmackDown, WWE made a Bloodline WarGames Match official between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns' faction. The Hollywood icon could make a stunning return at the spectacle, revealing himself as the fifth member of Sikoa's team. There have been several indications of this happening, as WWE has been teasing it subtly for a while.

Let's take a look at five signs that suggest The Rock will return at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024:


Former WWE writer buries Judgment Day HERE

#5. Solo Sikoa teased a 'Five vs. Five' WarGames Match

While challenging Roman Reigns for the Men's WarGames Match on SmackDown, Solo Sikoa teased that it would be a five-on-five clash, as he asked the OTC to gather four members for his team. Although it was never revealed who could be the fifth member of The Bloodline, Solo's confidence clearly reflected that he has something up his sleeve.

Therefore, this seems to be a massive indication that The Rock could show up at the Survivor Series PLE, unveiling himself as the fifth member of Team Sikoa. With The Bloodline currently comprising only four members, adding The Final Boss as the final member would solidify the group as a legitimate threat capable of taking down the OG Bloodline.

Besides, WWE could reveal The Rock as the actual mastermind behind the antics of Solo and Co., adding a new layer to the ongoing saga on SmackDown.


#4. A multi-person match would protect The Rock

The Rock has a demanding Hollywood schedule, making him cautious about potential injuries and concussions. As a result, his WWE appearance and in-ring physicality are often limited due to these concerns. However, a multiple-person match will allow the 52-year-old to compete in the Bloodline WarGames Match without taking much bumps.

It would offer WWE the opportunity to safeguard the Hollywood star while having him compete at the PLE. In fact, The Great One can participate in the final stages of the match, similar to what Randy Orton did last year. He can join the fray and unleash a few signature moves without getting involved in any risky spots to secure victory for his team in the match.

Therefore, the fact that the WarGames Match will be a multi-person bout and that The Bloodline will be involved in it serves as a major sign of The Final Boss' return at the PLE.


#3. His return to WWE TV at Bad Blood could be an indication of a major program

The Rock's return at Bad Blood was seemingly another major hint that WWE might have plans for him to feature at Survivor Series: WarGames. Considering that he showed up in Atlanta to put Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes on notice, The Great One could finally make his presence felt in the ongoing Bloodline saga at the upcoming PLE.

Additionally, Solo Sikoa's post-Bad Blood statement, in which he told fans that it was all "a part of the plan," could align with The Rock returning at Survivor Series to join his team in the WarGames Match against the OG Bloodline. In hindsight, The Final Boss' return at Bad Blood has seemingly sown the seeds of his potential involvement at the upcoming premium live event in Vancouver, Canada.


#2. Solo Sikoa subtly paid tribute to The Final Boss

On the latest edition of SmackDown, Solo Sikoa wore a very familiar costume, as his attire resembled The Rock's iconic 1990s outfit. The Street Champion was wearing a black turtleneck and a silver chain, drawing a parallel with The Final Boss, potentially as a tribute to him amid his return speculations.

Sikoa wearing that outfit weeks before Survivor Series: WarGames could be considered a strong hint for a potential appearance of The Rock. It could also be an indication that The Great One may have some connection with the 31-year-old, and the two could be furtively working together in The Bloodline.

Solo Sikoa could be following the Hollywood star's orders, while the latter could be the main person pulling the strings of The Bloodline 2.0.


#1. WWE would have a chance to sow the seeds for WrestleMania 41

Another sign that The Rock's appearance at Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 seems inevitable is that it can lay the groundwork for his potential WrestleMania 41 match. If The People's Champion joins Solo Sikoa's team as the fifth member, it could prompt Cody Rhodes to join forces with the OG Bloodline as its final member, as he has bad blood with The Final Boss.

Therefore, the Triple H-led creative team would have a big opportunity to sow the seeds of the main event of next year's Show of Shows, whether it be The Rock vs. The American Nightmare, The Final Boss vs. the OTC, or a Triple Threat Match. The company can make Survivor Series 2024 the foundation for the Road to WrestleMania 41 next year. Therefore, The Brahma Bull's return to the spectacle is quite plausible, given the direction it could lead to.

With several signs indicating The Rock's WWE homecoming at the November 30 spectacle, it remains to be seen whether fans get a glimpse of him in the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada.
