Fans Share Their Disappointment With The Rock’s Potential Involvement
Fans have been eagerly anticipating the rematch between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40. However, recent updates have left them disappointed, with many expressing their frustration on social media. Speculations have emerged that Dwayne Johnson might join Reigns in the ring for a potential retirement match.
Reign is also assumed to emerge victorious against The Rock, aiming to surpass Hulk Hogan’s record, who held his WWE title for 1474 days. Dustin Rhodes also voiced his desire for Cody to be in the main event against Roman, saying, “I hope Cody’s in the main event spot against Roman—If it is The Rock, I’m pissed.”
Fans on Twitter have echoed these sentiments, arguing that The American Nightmare deserves a one-on-one opportunity against the Universal Champion rather than being part of a triple threat with The Rock. The road to WrestleMania has become a rollercoaster for fans as the WWE Universe grapples with these potential developments.
It’ll be The Rock. It’s likely gonna be his retirement match. This family story will be amazing to watch unfold. And they want Roman to pass Hogan, so whoever fights him in Philly is losing. Can’t be Cody. Cody just has to wait til Survivor Series or WrestleMania 41.

Please keep it 1:1 either way. If Cody is suppose to win, Roman has to be pinned.
