The Rock returned to WWE on tonight's episode of RAW, which was the red brand's Premiere on Netflix. He cut a standard promo to kick off the partnership, essentially turning babyface. The Great One even gave his People's Championship to his daughters in the front row.
Following that, he would come out to acknowledge Roman Reigns after The OTC's win over Solo Sikoa in their Tribal Combat Match. The Final Boss went live on Instagram while backstage and shared a drink with Cody Rhodes. He then left the Intuit Dome in his truck after announcing that he would appear at NXT New Year's Evil tomorrow night.
However, in a possible botch mentioned by former WWE writer Vince Russo, the Hollywood megastar seemingly forgot his kids at the arena. Speaking on the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Russo poked fun at The Rock and the company for this botch:
"It's like 'Wait a minute, The Rock's leaving? Without his kids?'. Some of the stuff they do, I swear to God, they live in the bubble. Okay, he's there with his kids, he gives them the title, and now he's leaving without his kids," said Vince Russo. "Just unbelievable," he added. [49:25 - 50:03]
Speaking of his kids, it remains to be seen what The Rock will do on NXT. His first daughter, Ava, is the general manager of the developmental brand, so expect an on-screen interaction between the two.
