Tbh, I also am just gonna expect a Brook gag just so I don't have any expectations whatsoever.
But at the same time, I feel like this kind of experience for Zoro has been hinted at many times, even getting a foreshadow as far back as Arlong Park. Now, after the King fight, it does feel fitting for Zoro to have to overcome "death" whether that be in a physical, mental, or spiritual sense.
There are still several plotlines left for Zoro in Wano, and I think even the biggest Zoro detractors would admit that we at least need to get his lineage/backstory sorted out if nothing else. And I wouldn't count on Zoro being passed out while that happens to be honest lol
