Tonight’s WWE RAW episode opened with Cody Rhodes. After facing Roman Reigns last week on SmackDown, he had a lot to say. However, before Rhodes could get into the meat of what he wanted to talk about, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson showed up. His theme took the fans in Chicago by surprise. Johnson was advertised for next week’s RAW on April 1. Not only did he show up early for the show, but he also showed up early for something else.

Fans were expecting The Rock to show up on the go-home episode of WWE RAW on April 1. While this was advertised, Johnson’s appearance on the show was a pleasant surprise.

Dwayne Johnson botches his entrance by arriving before the spotlight

After turning heel, Johnson debuted a new entrance. Inspired by his movie Black Adam, his entrance incorporated visuals of lightning and light. However, timing is everything that makes it look good. When done correctly, The Rock seems to have beamed down by lightning during his entrance. It seemed like Johnson got the timing wrong tonight, and the entrance looked odd.

As Rhodes looked towards the entrance when Johnson’s music hit, he saw The Rock standing there. A few seconds later, the spotlight hit him. With Johnson’s new entrance, he is required to appear at the entrance as the spotlight hits. Tonight, he botched the timing and was there way too early and a bit too far. This resulted in The Brahma Bull standing on the dark stage before the spotlight hit him.
