WWE WrestleMania Main Event Officially Cody Rhodes VS Roman Reigns Raising Questions About Where The Rock Fits In The Mix

Ultimately, it appears that Cody Rhodes, along with the WWE Universe, will have their desires fulfilled at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia. However, the journey to this point has been nothing short of a tumultuous rollercoaster ride!

On February 8, Las Vegas witnessed one of the most intense and chaotic press conferences in the history of sports entertainment, marking a pivotal moment in Cody's journey to WrestleMania.

Initially, it seemed that The Rock and Roman Reigns were on the verge of locking horns in a highly anticipated main event. With Cody yet to officially declare his intentions, The Rock seemed poised to leapfrog him and pursue the Undisputed WWE Universal Title. This prospect didn't sit well with the WWE Universe, who voiced their discontent. While a showdown between The Rock and Roman Reigns was a dream match for many, no one wished for it to come at Cody Rhodes' expense.

​Interestingly, Cody shared the sentiments of the fans. Breaking his weeks-long silence, Cody disrupted the press conference-turned-Bloodline celebration to declare his intention: as the Royal Rumble victor, he would challenge Roman Reigns at WrestleMania.
​
This revelation sent shockwaves through the press conference, culminating in The Rock delivering a slap across Cody's face after talking about the Samoan's family tree.. The event descended into chaos, leaving fans uncertain about the WrestleMania main event. Despite The Rock's vehement objections, Triple H ultimately decided that Cody Rhodes would indeed challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania.
​
The official announcement came shortly after the tumultuous press conference, solidifying Cody's opportunity to confront the seemingly invincible Roman Reigns in Philadelphia on either April 6 or 7.
​
However, recent events have shown that circumstances can change in an instant. Given The Rock's disposition, it's likely that more twists and turns await on the Road to WrestleMania in the coming weeks!
