SmackDown 03/01 has been living up to the hype in Glendale, Arizona tonight as predicted. The ultimate hype master, The Rock made his presence felt at the show with a jaw-dropping entrance. Not only did he return, but he ended up doing what the masses were expecting him to do. Johnson gave a poised answer to Rhodes’ past challenge by setting up a tag team match against him and Seth Rollins alongside Roman Reigns at WrestleMania Night 1.

A huge WrestleMania tag team match has been made official tonight on the blue brand

The Rock was on fire while making Rhodes pay for his audacity during the Grayson Waller Effect. In a fiery promo, The Great One announced he was not going to beat the American Nightmare alone. He alongside his Bloodline family then went on to take some solid digs at him, labelling Rhodes as an idiot and also name-called Rollins as a walking clown emoji. Then they put forward the big offer to face off against Rhodes and Rollins in a special tag team bout wherein if their opponents win, The Bloodline won’t be ringside for WrestleMania Night 2.
