The last time Dwayne appeared on WWE's Smackdown on was January 2013.
He has been busy making blockbuster movies ever since.
Some of his films include 'Furious 7', 'Moana', 'The Fate of the Furious', 'Baywatch', 'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle' and 'Skyscraper' and 'Hobbs & Shaw'.
Dwayne, who is now one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood, will appear in 'Jumanji: The Next Level' in December 2019.
He announced his retirement from professional wrestling earlier in August but it seems he just couldn't stay away from the ring.
The Smackdown premiere will be screened in South Africa on SuperSport (DStv 204) on Saturday at 2am.
FINALLY...I come back home to my @WWE universe.
