The Rock started off a Monday Night Raw that broke records by claiming responsibility for revitalizing the appeal of professional wrestling.
The crowd at Brooklyn’s sold-out arena erupted into a steady mix of boos and “Rocky”chants when The Rock’s music began to play.
The Rock addressed Cody Rhodes supporters, referring to them as the “Cody Crybabies”and presenting videos of young fans crying after the brutal attack from the previous week.
Afterwards, “The Great One”focused on Raw’s astounding attendance for his upcoming comeback at Wrestlemania XL.
“Brooklyn, are you feeling it?”Rock inquired. “Because this feeling you have right now, professional wrestling is cool once again.”
“Currently, The Rock’s presence has caused the ratings to soar.”

“Rock congratulated the crowd for setting a record for the largest gate in the history of Raw tonight.”
However, it wasn’t long before The Rock once again shifted the focus onto himself. He claimed full responsibility for making the WWE “cool again”in a tweet from his account, linked here: https://x.com/big_business_/status/1774965051205509563?s=61&t=URe8qAbUy4OteMUR2MH5fQ.
“There is one clear reason for this, as blood was finally spilled. We are now only five days away from Wrestlemania.”
“Finally, The Final Boss has returned to Brooklyn.”
The WWE Universe has a strong belief that professional wrestling is currently at its peak, and The Rock deserves credit for this.
The fact that this Monday’s episode of Raw, which was labeled as the “Go Home”episode, set a new record for gate attendance only serves to reinforce that belief.
On the previous Monday, Rock’s brutal attack on Cody Rhodes brought back memories of the legendary “Attitude Era”from the late 1990s and early 2000s.
After an eight-year hiatus, “Rocky”will return to the ring for his first official match. He will be teaming up with his cousin, Roman Reigns, on the first night of Wrestlemania XL to face off against Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
