The wrestling world erupted when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson officially returned to the WWE ring after more than six years away. The last time fans saw the legendary “rock” perform The People’s Elbow was in 2019 — and now, in 2025, he did it again on a night no one will forget!

The event took place at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, where tens of thousands of spectators cheered nonstop when The Rock’s familiar music played. The entire arena nearly exploded with screams when his iconic image appeared on the big screen. And within seconds, The Rock walked out to the chants of “Finally… The Rock has come back!” — a legendary greeting that has rocked the WWE world for a long time.

But what gave the audience “goosebumps” was not just his return, but the moment he chose to appear: right when Roman Reigns – the current champion, who is known as “The Tribal Chief” – was declaring that “No one can overthrow my empire.” And that was the moment The Rock stepped out, looked Reigns straight in the eyes, and smiled defiantly.

The atmosphere in the stadium became crazy, and when the two faced each other in the ring, fans knew that the legend was returning to reclaim the throne of the Anoa’i family – from which both The Rock and Reigns came.

Not stopping there, The Rock suddenly performed The People’s Elbow – the classic move that made his trademark. This action not only made Reigns fall in shock, but also made the entire audience stand up and scream like never before. Some have called this “WWE’s greatest nostalgic moment of the decade.”

According to insiders, The Rock’s return to WWE is not only to recapture old glory, but also to pave the way for a historic match: The Rock vs Roman Reigns – Bloodline vs Bloodline, scheduled to take place in late 2025. This will be a battle between a past legend and a present icon, between two men of the same bloodline, but two different eras of WWE.

In a post-event interview, The Rock said briefly but with spirit:

“I’m not back for fame. I’m back for legacy. This is the moment to remind the world that The Rock is still there… and will never disappear.”

Immediately, social networks X (Twitter) and Instagram were flooded with clips recording the moment The Rock unleashed his move. The hashtag #TheRockReturns quickly reached the Top 1 trending worldwide, with millions of fans re-sharing the video with comments like:

“I grew up with The Rock. Seeing him come back is like reliving my childhood.”

“No one can replace The Rock – he is the soul of WWE.”

WWE experts say that this return is not only iconic but also opens a new chapter for the professional wrestling world. With global appeal, The Rock can help WWE regain its dominant position after many years of being competed by other tournaments.

And perhaps, what is more special – as fans are speculating – is that The Rock chose to return on the exact year he completed his 30-year career in WWE, as a way to pay tribute to the past and affirm that:

“The Rock never left. He just waited for the right time to electrify the world again.”

That night, all of Las Vegas did not sleep. And people understand that – The Rock has truly returned, not only in the ring, but also in the hearts of millions of WWE lovers around the world.
