Recent new merchandise for Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson should not be taken as a sign of his imminent return.
This week, WWE released two new hoodies for the Brahma Bull, with some speculating that this was a sign he’d be competing in next week’s Men’s Royal Rumble match.

This week, it was reported that The Rock does not feel he will have sufficient time to get prepared for the Royal Rumble or compete at WrestleMania.
In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reports that this merchandise was not intended to be seen as related to the Rumble, and was merely put out in connection with Raw’s 30th anniversary.
Next week’s RAW will be the 30th-anniversary show, but the Brahma Bull has not been announced for the event.
There is speculation that he could appear as part of the Bloodline Acknowledgement ceremony during the broadcast.
