Before possibly facing each other at WrestleMania 40, Roman Reigns and The Rock will have a faceoff at the pre-event press conference. WWE has officially announced this key affair on its platforms. On the other hand, fans continue to criticize the fact that Cody Rhodes is not the one who is going to battle for the Undisputed Universal Championship.

With the ongoing #WeWantCody movement, maybe the WWE could alter its plans at the press conference. Here’s all we know about the media event so far.
