Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes have been building their feud since long before WrestleMania 39, and they are getting ready for a match at WrestleMania 40. WWE sources reveal the twists and turns of Cody Rhodes’ WrestleMania 40 storyline as excitement for their match grows.
The second night of WrestleMania 40 is expected to be an exciting match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. The reigning champion, Roman Reigns, will defend his title against the 2024 Royal Rumble winner, Cody Rhodes.
WWE writer Brian Gewirtz talked about the creative direction of Cody Rhodes’ run to WrestleMania 40 in an interview with ESPN.com. Gewirtz wondered if Cody’s victory in the Royal Rumble would have made fans’ desire for him to conclude his storyline less intense.
He stressed that fans’ expectations for a smooth continuation of Cody’s story were raised by his triumph in the Royal Rumble.
Gewirtz emphasized the general agreement among WWE insiders—among them wrestling legend The Rock—that it would be hypocritical to retract Cody Rhodes’ victory from the Royal Rumble.
He emphasized how crucial it is to keep the plot realistic and true, pointing out that in the real world, Cody’s triumph would naturally result in a chance to defend the title at WrestleMania 40.
The rumors that Cody Rhodes would defeat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 are getting more and more intense. Many think Cody will overthrow the Tribal Chief and finish his story at the biggest possible grand finale. Still, only time will tell how these titans of wrestling will fare in this titanic match.
