The wrestling world is in such an incoherent state right now that even the fans are puzzled about it all. While the recently held events did give fans the matches they had been looking forward to seeing all this time between The Rock, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, John Cena, and all the others, it also brought about some seriously unforeseen and incredibly confusing situations.
One of these situations was none other than Dwayne Johnson’s final message to the American Nightmare at WWE Raw after WrestleMania XL. If anything, this one particular message had fans so at a loss about what to make of it since the message that the Brahma Bull delivered to Rhodes felt nothing short of emotional and sentimental on the part of Johnson.
The Rock had a Surprise for Cody Rhodes at Monday Night’s Raw
If WrestleMania 40 wasn’t enough to leave fans baffled enough to make sense of what was actually going on, Monday Night’s Raw match further increased fans in those reactions. If anything, now the WWE fans are more perplexed than ever about what truly is happening in the wrestling world.
This comes after The Rock delivered an incredibly (and surprisingly) emotional segment to Cody Rhodes after making an unexpected appearance at the Raw event. Making it all the more dumbfounding was him handing something to Rhodes through a handshake.
As the Final Boss said to the current Undisputed WWE Universal Champion (via @WWE on X):
“You don’t even have to open your hand to know what this is. Don’t you ever break my heart again… If you smell what the Final Boss is cooking.”

But even with such minimal words spoken while he interrupted Rhodes celebrating his newly achieved exceptional feat, Dwayne Johnson still managed to catch all the WWE fans from all across the globe in a chokehold.
While the thing that the People’s Champion handed over to the American Nightmare is still something that fans are yet to figure out, what fans are even more confused about is the true reason behind such an emotional reaction from Johnson.
The Rock’s Final Message to Cody Rhodes has Fans Confused to the Core
Ever since The Samoan Sensation made his surprising visit to interrupt Rhodes’ celebration at Monday Night’s Raw, fans can’t help but wonder why exactly The Blue Chipper was scripted to act so sentimentally.
Taking to X, here’s how they’re reacting to this particular expression of Johnson’s:

WHY IS THE ROCK BEING LIKE THAT

Well, while the mystery about what Johnson handed over to Rhodes or why he was being so emotional, asking the American Nightmare to never “break my heart again”, is yet to be solved, one other thing has been made evident nonetheless:
The Rock will be coming for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship that Cody Rhodes managed to steal (fair and square) from Roman Reigns, and the upcoming events just might get much tougher than what Rhodes’ fans are expecting for him.
