The Rock teases that “disruptive moves” are coming following his return to WWE.
The Rock appeared on the February 21st episode of WWE SmackDown, and he electrified the fans by saying that he wanted Cody Rhodes’ soul. Following this controversial segment, he is set to appear at WWE Elimination Chamber.
“The Final Boss” then took to social media to comment on the appearance. After thanking everyone for tuning in, he dropped a tease by saying “we got some disruptive moves coming up so tune in.”
He also wrote that he loved “playin’ this audacious, unpredictable character known as Final Boss.”
The Rock On Cody Rhodes Segment
The Rock discussed his segment with Rhodes at the WWE SmackDown post-show press conference.
“… At the end, the Final Boss says, ‘I want your soul.’ I think what that does, in this wild, crazy world of pro wrestling, is that to me, it just becomes something that’s unpredictable. In the world of pro wrestling, everything will culminate to a match. Whatever happens, it will end up in the ring.”
“What I really love about this rare airspace that we’ve gotten to with the character of the Final Boss, it’s like this white whale unicorn in that with the Final Boss and Cody Rhodes, it’s not about the WWE Title, it’s not about having a match. It’s not about punching or kicking or bleeding or any of that that is so part of our world,” The Rock said. “It never has to culminate to a match.”
“That’s a really special place to be, I think, creatively and when you think character-wise and how much fun you can have. I grew up in the business, as did Cody. His dad and my dad were friends, they’re no longer with us. But I think to be able to have a storyline and two characters who are very popular, to never have to get in the ring for a match but yet still hold this really unique, compelling, offputting and it’s kinda weird, ‘He wants his soul.’ What does that mean? I love it. I loved every moment, and I think Cody did too as well. We had a few tequilas after tonight.”
