A former WWE employee recently predicted he will return at WrestleMania 41 to interfere in John Cena&#8217;s title match against Cody Rhodes.<\/p>\n<p>At Elimination Chamber last month, Cena aligned with The Rock and Travis Scott as they ganged up on The American Nightmare after the latter declined to sell his soul to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-time-the-rock-s-return-wwe-reason-mentioned-tv-predicted-veteran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">The Final Boss<\/a>. Although The Franchise Player and Rhodes have had three confrontations since then, The Rock has not appeared. Speaking on <em>Behind The Turnbuckle: The Last Word <\/em>podcast, former floor manager of the Stamford-based promotion Tommy Carlucci predicted that the 52-year-old legend would make his comeback this Sunday at the Show of Shows.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>Carlucci, who spent over 30 years in WWE, speculated that Cena would end <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/wwe\/news-cody-rhodes-must-avoid-taking-massive-step-wwe-career-wrestlemania-41-says-analyst\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Cody Rhodes<\/a>&#8216; championship reign. Meanwhile, he disclosed that he believes The Final Boss would return during the match.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;You gotta be a frigging idiot if you don&#8217;t think Cena is gonna win on the biggest stage of all. It&#8217;s the 17th time. He beats Ric Flair&#8217;s record. The big question to me is will we see The Final Boss? And I think we will see him during this match,&#8221; he said.

I&#8217;ve never seen the WWE make a more clear statement that John Cena is going to win than this right here. Every single RAW After WrestleMania, at least that I&#8217;ve been involved in, is they used to make us drive and now it&#8217;s in the same city. So, it&#8217;s going to be at T-Mobile. If you can&#8217;t sell 17,000 tickets after WrestleMania with all those people in town then what are you doing? So, why do you need to advertise that John Cena is going to be there on Monday night, which now that they have. So, to me, they&#8217;re screaming to the world because John Cena would never show up in reality if he lost to Cody Rhodes on Sunday night, would he?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It will be interesting to see if Coachman and Carlucci&#8217;s predictions do come true this weekend at WrestleMania 41.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong><em>If you use the quote from the first part of this article, please credit Behind The Turnbuckle: The Last Word and give an H\/T to Sportskeeda Wrestling for the transcription.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-author-info-parent\">\n<span class=\"about-the-author\">About the author<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-info-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-pic-holder\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"author-pic\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,&lt;svg width=\" height=\"100\"\/><rect width=\"100\" height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\/>&#8221; data-lazy=&#8221;https:\/\/keedag.sportskeeda.com\/user-pic\/92800-1613523594-200.jpg?w=200&#8243;<br \/>\nalt=&#8221;Ahmed Hamdy&#8221; height=&#8221;72&#8243; width=&#8221;72&#8243;&gt;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-bio-detail-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p class=\"author-bio\" id=\"author-bio-text\">\nAhmed Hamdy is an Egyptian journalist with a decade of experience in sports journalism, specializing in pro wrestling and football. <\/p>\n<p>Hamdy kicked off his career as a sports reporter for Al-Ahram Weekly.
