WWE rumors celebrating The Rock’s 30-year anniversary, Digi Mart USA News: Rocky Maivia made his WWF pay-per-view debut 30 years ago at Survivor Series 1996. That babyface gimmick did not succeed, but he soon reinvented himself as The Rock and became one of the biggest stars in the history of the sport.
According to a new report from WrestleVotes Radio, WWE has plans to celebrate 30 years of The Rock this month, with Survivor Series 2026 a few weeks away. The reported plans include a new commemorative championship belt, other special merchandise and a social media campaign honoring his career.
The report suggests that recent comments by The Rock praising AEW and mentioning Tony Khan have not stopped WWE from honoring his career. There is no word on whether The Rock will return to WWE programming as part of the celebration.
If he does, he may carry a second title in addition to The People’s Championship belt.
PWInsider claims that a major portion of production for WWE Crown Jewel on Saturday will be done remotely at WWE Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut. Production and satellite trucks will be stationed at WWE headquarters, with fewer WWE staff than usual present in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

WrestleVotes says WWE previously discussed using the Iron Survivor gimmick on the main roster, but it is unclear whether that is more likely now that NXT is dropping it for TLC this year. One source indicates that Sami Zayn’s WWE championship storyline is the best fit for the concept, if WWE uses it.
WrestleVotes was told that WWE was very happy with how Danhausen was featured on its programming during Halloween week. As a result, Danhausen will reportedly take on the role of Santahausen during the holiday season as part of WWE’s marketing campaign for Christmas-themed merchandise.
