The Rock’s WWE Smackdown Return Gets Over 103 MILLION Social Views

1 years ago By Sports Desk

In the world of professional wrestling, few names resonate as powerfully as Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. A true icon in WWE history, The Rock sent shockwaves through the wrestling universe with his unexpected return during the September 15th episode of SmackDown.

This comeback was more than just a moment; it was a seismic event that reverberated across not just the arena but also through the vast landscape of social media.

On that electrifying Friday evening, The Rock made his presence felt by crashing a confrontation between Pat McAfee and Austin Theory. Unsurprisingly, the Hollywood superstar wasted no time in getting physical, unleashing a bone-rattling spinebuster on Theory before sealing the deal with his legendary finishing move, the “People’s Elbow.”

The response from the Denver, Colorado crowd was nothing short of thunderous, greeting The Rock with a reception that could only be described as monumental.

A Social Media Explosion

The digital world was no less enthralled. Videos related to The Rock’s triumphant return generated millions of views, offering a glimpse into the global impact of his reappearance.

According to WWE, the video showcasing The Rock’s return amassed a staggering 103 million views across all WWE social media platforms in just 24 hours. WWE couldn’t contain its excitement, tweeting, “TheRock’s #SmackDown return has been viewed over 103 MILLION times!”

To put this into perspective, as of September 17th, the 13-minute segment featuring The Rock’s return had already racked up over 3.4 million views on YouTube alone. Additionally, a backstage video featuring The Rock alongside fellow WWE legend John Cena tallied an impressive 1.5 million views. Even a video capturing The Rock’s entrance solo garnered a robust 803,000 views on the platform.

In contrast, the most-watched video from that SmackDown episode, which didn’t involve The Rock, highlighted Santos Escobar’s plea for a US Title match and garnered 356,000 views. These numbers underscore the unparalleled magnetism and draw of The Rock.

Future Speculations and High Anticipation

The Rock’s unexpected return has sparked fervent discussions and speculations within the wrestling community. Foremost among these speculations is the possibility of a headline match between The Rock and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 in April.

While previous plans for this colossal clash may have been shelved, the anticipation for such an epic showdown remains sky-high. The mere thought of these two titans locking horns in the squared circle has sent shockwaves of excitement throughout the WWE universe, leaving fans eagerly awaiting further developments in The Rock’s electrifying return saga.
