WrestleMania XL cemented its status as a resounding success in terms of sales and revenue generated. In addition, it stood out as one of the most followed events in sporting history, with fans from all over the world engaging with the event. This is due, in part, to The Rock’s presence on the show. But like all good things, this too came to an end.

Last Monday on RAW, The Rock announced his temporary departure from WWE programming. Despite the disheartening nature of his departure, he offered a silver lining by hinting at his eventual return and resuming his rivalry with Cody Rhodes. So now fans cannot wait for the return of the Brahma Bull and when will we get to see him face the American Nightmare? Well, there might finally be an update on that.

The marquee matchup between Dwayne Johnson and Cody Rhodes may not air on a PLE

In the latest edition of the Busted Open podcast, Dave LeGraca and Co. talked about the current scenarios in the WWE as well as what the future plans might look like. And one of the most anticipated topics was the return of the Brahma Bull. And while discussing the topic, it was speculated that rather than being held in a PLE, Rhodes vs Rock might be on Netflix instead. They said that while there are several Netflix users who don’t follow RAW. And since RAW will be on Netflix soon and people recognize the Rock, they might click to watch his match. Also giving the timeline, they said, “Wouldn’t it be intriguing if the timeline all worked out? Wouldn’t it be intriguing that exactly one year later after The Rock resurfaced and after one year later after The Rock joined the TKO board? I’m talking early January. What if early January 2025? The first Monday night Raw on Netflix. We sell the house out for The Rock vs. Cody Rhodes. What a move to Netflix. What a statement that would be.”
