WWE fans were left delighted after Dwayne \u2018The Rock\u2019 Johnson made a shock return to the ring last night. <\/p>\n
With fans dubbing him as the \u2018GOAT\u2019 (greatest of all time) there are loud calls for him to make his full-time return to the sport.<\/p>\n
The Rock returned to challenge Austin Theory, who had been steadily building his reputation as a talented up and coming wrestler.<\/p>\n

Last night\u2019s episode saw Theory confront the returning commentator Pat McAfee in the Smackdown segment. However, The Rock made a shock return and stole the microphone to show the young superstar that he will not beat him.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Fans went wild for the first appearance after almost four years.<\/p>\n
In the uncensored version of the Rock\u2019s return, he commanded each side of the stadium to shout \u2018you are an a***hole\u2019 to Theory after the count of three, while smirking in his face. <\/p>\n
Legend John Cena could also be seen egging them on in the corner of the ring.<\/p>\n
While Theory was seen to be getting visibly annoyed, the fans were delighted with the reappearance of the Rock.<\/p>\n
Theory proceeds to shout at the audience to \u2018shut up\u2019 and stop their taunting, claiming he "is not".<\/p>\n
Fans, however, carried on with the support of The People's Champion, who said \u2018the Rock and the people are having fun, baby.\u2019<\/p>\n
One fan took to Twitter and said the crowd being "loud" at the sight of the Rock was a massive "understatement".<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Theory then went to attack the Rock, before Dwayne hit out with his signature spinebuster and People\u2019s Elbow to take him out.<\/p>\n
A fan said: "I can\u2019t name any person who can control the crowd with the flick of his fingers The Rock is the GOAT".<\/p>\n
Others say his return was a "true surprise" and that they hope he makes a "full return".<\/p>\n
This episode seemed a hit with another fan who said: "Pat McAfee return, the Rock return, John Cena appearance, LA Knight appearance, woman main evented, Michael Cole looking like a snack. That was the greatest SmackDown of all time."<\/p>\n
The Rock also spoke on McAfee's podcast earlier in the day to say he almost had a match lined up for Wrestlemania against his family member Roman Reigns, a match many fans have been waiting for.<\/p>\n
But for whatever reason, the match never went ahead…but maybe it could happen in the future.<\/p>\n
