The Rock made his first WWE appearance of 2024 at RAW: Day 1, leaving no stone unturned to humiliate a 37-year-old star. However, wrestling fans believe that Jinder Mahal helped the Hollywood megastar carry the segment on the red show.
The Modern Day Maharaja was initially revealed as the returning former WWE Champion on RAW. Mahal's entrance and anti-American tirade drew loud boos from the San Diego crowd. However, The Great One's unexpected arrival changed the arena's atmosphere, as he engaged in a verbal back-and-forth with the Canadian star.
The Rock berated Jinder Mahal, cutting an entertaining promo. He also paid tribute to the late WWE Hall of Famer, The Iron Shiek during the exchange. Mahal was displeased by the Samoan star's actions and attacked him inside the ring. The 10-time World Champion quickly bounced back, delivering a Spinebuster and People's elbow to the heel.
