The Rock posted a promotional image for Elimination Chamber: Toronto on Instagram that noticeably excluded John Cena. The original poster featured The Rock, Travis Scott, and Cena, but the version shared by The Final Boss removed Cena’s image completely.
This subtle omission comes as both superstars prepare for appearances at the upcoming premium live event. Cena will compete in the 2025 Men’s Elimination Chamber Match alongside five other competitors, while The Rock is scheduled to appear seeking an answer from Cody Rhodes regarding his demand for The American Nightmare to “sell his soul” and potentially become a corporate champion.
The history between these two performers adds significant context to this social media move. The Rock and Cena were once fierce rivals who headlined two consecutive WrestleMania events, creating one of WWE’s most memorable modern rivalries.
Their paths crossed more recently at WrestleMania XL during Rhodes’ World Championship match against Roman Reigns. During that confrontation, Cena delivered Attitude Adjustments to both Reigns and Solo Sikoa before The Rock responded with a Rock Bottom to Cena.
This latest social media interaction suggests the tension between these former rivals remains unresolved heading into Elimination Chamber: Toronto.
