WWE WrestleMania 41 was a star-studded affair, featuring some of the biggest names in sports entertainment. However, one WWE megastar was noticeably absent despite his prominent involvement in one of the biggest storylines of the year. The Rock was absent during the entirety of WrestleMania 41, even during its final event, the match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. This has prompted people to wonder why The Rock didn’t appear at the event.
Here’s everything we have found out about it.
Why Dwayne The Rock Johnson’s Final Boss didn’t appear at WrestleMania 41
Rumors have been circulating about why The Rock did not appear in WrestleMania despite playing an important role in setting up the feud between Cena and Rhodes. Notably, Cena won the match following an interference by Travis Scott, becoming the World Champion the 17th time.
Neither WWE nor The Rock has issued an official statement explaining the latter’s absence from the biggest annual event in sports entertainment. A recent Instagram post from Johnson indicates that he was in Hawaii on Saturday, April 19, and not anywhere near Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, where WrestleMania 41 took place. Johnson shared a video clip of himself driving on Maui, an island in the Hawaiian archipelago.
He wrote in the caption, “Love coming back and kicking it on Maui with ohana [family]. I can drive my truck all day all over the island. Life is so crazy, so just breathing in the mana will always be one of my anchors.”
Various outlets speculate that The Rock missed WrestleMania 41 for different reasons. Besides being a pro wrestler, Johnson is one of the biggest movie stars in the world. It makes sense that he had a scheduling conflict and eventually ended up in Hawaii. There is also the possibility that he didn’t want to take the spotlight away from Cena during one of the most significant moments of the latter’s pro wrestling career. Another possibility is that The Rock and WWE writers want to keep the fans guessing, and he might reappear as Cena-Rhodes storyline continues.
