Backstage News On The Rock’s Future in WWE

According to The Wrestling News Observer, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is still expected to be away from World Wrestling Entertainment for quite some time.

The merchandising team has been told to avoid producing any new product containing his name or likeness. Using it in group shots is acceptable, but nothing individual is allowed.

They have also been given word that The Rock won’t be around with the company until 2015 at the earliest.

Johnson reportedly gave word back in August that he wouldn’t be working WrestleMania 30. There were plans for a match with Brock Lesnar which were eventually scrapped.

Although he won’t be making an appearance in New Orleans in a few months, The Rock still hasn’t ruled out working WrestleMania 31 at Levi’s Stadium.
