Speaking to , Brian Gewirtz, former WWE writer and SVP of Development at Seven Bucks Productions, was asked how much The Rock𒁏 sees when ♍it comes to fans asking him to acknowledge Roman Reigns.

"The Rock does look at his social media. I don't know how much you can cover when you have millions upon millions and millions of followers, but somehow, he saw the Grayson Waller thing. We haven't discussed it. I personally don't think...obviously, there are bigger things going on in the world in general, but even in the entertainment landscape, I would be...even though WWE is not affiliated with any of the guilds and not affiliated with SAG, it's a bad look for a prominent actor like The Rock, Cena [John Cena], Batista [Dave Bautista] to appear on an entertainment program while there is a strike going on and people are not getting paid and are striking. Yes, it's not insane, but appearing on television in an entertainment capacity is not a great look when a strike is going. I would be shocked if The Rock appeared anytime soon while the strike is going on, but I would be equally, if not more shocked if The Rock never appeared in a WWE ring again and figuring in the storyline at some point. It needs to be crafted, discussed, and thought about. We've never talked about this, just my opinion, if The Rock tweeted something about The Bloodline, it's not like if I tweeted something. If he tweeted something, the gates of hell are open. It's hard to close the door again once you do it, once you dip your toe into the pool, it's on. You can tweet Grayson Waller, he can tweet back, and it can be a funny exchange, but there's not going to be this pitchfork like mentality of 'what are you waiting for, do it, you started it.' Once you start doing the Bloodline thing, it's time to go. That's why you have to be very judicious and careful," said Gewirtz.

Gewirtz previously shot down report꧑s that The Rock couldn't get in ring shape for a potential match 🌱against Roman Reigns at WWE WrestleMania 39.

As of now, it is unknown when Rock will return to the ring, or♚ how long the SAG-AFTRA strike will last.
