Backstage update on John Cena and The Rock appearing on RAW's Netflix debut (Exclusive)

WWE is admittedly pulling out all the stops for RAW's Netflix debut. The red brand will become exclusive to the streaming giant come January 6. Fans are anticipating some big surprises (and names) to pop up in Los Angeles, California, for the show.

Speaking during Live Q&A on Backstage Pass, WrestleVotes provided an update as it pertains to which WWE legend could show up for RAW's Netflix debut. He named John Cena and The Rock as the two superstars currently confirmed to appear on the show.

"Are you counting Rock as a surprise or are you counting Cena as a surprise? I mean, they'll both be there. I wouldn't be surprised if Steve Austin showed up. I've heard that Shawn Michaels may make an appearance. Anybody that they have under a legends deal, that is healthy enough to be in Los Angeles, I would expect to be there." [04:16 onwards]

The Rock hasn't appeared on WWE television since Bad Blood 2024 when he popped up to have a staring contest with Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns following their win over Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu.

Cena, on the other hand, will kick off his retirement tour in January. The 16-time world champion announced his retirement at Money in the Bank 2024. Fans will have to wait to see which WWE legends will make it to RAW's Netflix debut.
