At Survivor series:

The Rock was mentioned several times during Sunday’s Survivor Series pay-per-view as WWE celebrated the 25th anniversary of his debut, but fans hoping he’d show up at Barclays Center were sorely disappointed.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported The Rock was not in attendance because he’s in Europe filming a movie. COVID-19 travel restrictions and quarantine laws would have prevented him from making the trip in a way that would not impact his filming schedule.

Impact Wrestling:

The Rock on WWE programming is when he’s setting up one last feud with Roman Reigns. The possibility has been talked about enough—both by The Rock and Reigns—that it seems inevitable for WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles two years from now.

By then, hopefully the pandemic is under better control worldwide and it’s more feasible for someone with The Rock’s schedule to be on WWE programming regularly. 

Returns 2021:

The Rock reportedly couldn’t attend Survivor Series since he was abroad filming a movie.

Fans inside the Barclays Center in Brooklyn seemed convinced that The Rock was scheduled to return at the recently-concluded Survivor Series. Despite countless teases from WWE throughout the event, Rock sadly didn’t show up on the 25th anniversary of his debut.

On the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer revealed that Dwayne Johnson was never slated to appear at Survivor Series as he was out of the country filming a movie. Traveling back and forth was also not an option for The Rock due to the strict quarantine regulations.
