Finally…The Rock. Is Back. At SNL

On March 28th, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is scheduled to host Saturday Night Live for the 4th time. He’ll be promoting his new movie, Furious 7, the latest installment in the Fast & Furious franchise by returning to the famed late night sketch-comedy show. With it being the night before WrestleMania, perhaps The Rock may mention the Super Bowl of professional wrestling occurring the next day. Even if WrestleMania isn’t brought up, it’s definitely a weekend for WWE fans, with the Hall of Fame taking place the night before WrestleMania following WrestleMania week in the California Bay Area, home of WrestleMania 31.

While The Rock is one of the biggest stars to come out of the WWE, it is always a positive to see WWE alum making big splashes in the mainstream world. Who knows? Maybe someone like John Cena may host in the near future, especially considering that he’s in two films with flooded with SNL alum—Trainswreck costars Bill Hader and features appearances by alum Colin Quinn and current cast member Vanessa Bayer while Sisters stars SNL alum Tina Fey and Amy Poehler along with Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, and current SNL-er Kate McKinnon. Here’s to wishing The Rock a fun 4th time out hosting Saturday Night Live.
