Recently Dwayne Johnson slapped Cody Rhodes after he pointed fingers at Roman Reigns during the WrestleMania kickoff event on February 9. Rhodes had also called out Dwayne Johnson for being inactive for multiple years and not cooking anything til now.   

At WrestleMania 40, Reigns will defend the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Cody Rhodes, with a possible tag team match between The Rock & Reigns and Rhodes & Seth Rollins also teased for a future event. Because Rhodes dissed their family, Rock will possibly team up with Reigns to defeat The American Nightmare for once and all. 

The Rock has become a member of the TKO Board of Directors and has taken Rhodes’s place for the WrestleMania 40 event against The Tribal Chief. This led to a backlash from fans and other wrestlers coming up with the #WeWantCodyRhodes movement. Due to this, they had to make things clear in the kickoff event. However, let us see where things take a turn.
