Survivor Series 2024 is expected to take place on November 21, 2024 in Brooklyn, New York City. It is one of the big four PPVs of WWE. Dwayne Johnson popularly known as The Rock is allegedly reported to make WWE return at the upcoming Survivor Series.
The Rock was last seen in the company on 4 October 2019, during the 20th-anniversary of Smackdown. His last in-ring WWE match was at the 32nd WrestleMania. Where he defeated Erick Rowan in six seconds, in an impromptu WrestleMania record.

It is expected that The Rock will appear to build a possible match with the WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns at the upcoming WrestleMania event when he shows up in the Survivor Series.
“The hope is for Dwayne Johnson to make an appearance at that show but that isn’t locked in. The hope is for around that time. If he’s involved that would make it a huge show and it would lead credence to Reigns vs. Johnson for WrestleMania.”

And it all comes back and I think he would agree to this, it all comes back to the audience. What do our fans wanna see? What’s gonna entertain? What’s gonna create that escapism where they feel like this is real. Those are the moments I wanna create,”
