There is still a chance that The Rock will appear at WrestleMania although it’s not likely right now. As we’ve noted time and time again, The Rock’s contract expired last year and attempts to renew it failed. Rock and WWE are expected to continue talking and an agreement will likely be reached at some point. There is no real heat between Rock and Vince and it is clear that Rock still wants to be a part of wrestling in some way, shape, fr form.’
Those close to the situation say Vince McMahon is really a mess right now. We’ve noted before that he is confined to a wheelchair and has trouble getting dressed in the morning. The talk is that he’ll miss at least two months, possibly four. McMahon has always been known to try to look his best in front of the boys and is always working out. That is something he is obviously unable to do at the current time. Vince is also not one to ever show his pain in front of anyone other than family. Shane McMahon was the one who escorted him from the arena after the Royal Rumble while everyone else was pushed aside. The second quad tear occurred when Vince tried to put all his weight on his good leg to lessen the pain of the first quad tear. That resulted in the second qaud tear upon getting backstage. It’s not confirmed that he’ll be at ‘Mania and many don’t feel he’ll show up until he is physically fit and in good condition. He has always been very high on what he looks like in front of the guys. We’ll keep you posted.
