The fortieth edition of WrestleMania is just a few nights away. The two nights in Philadelphia are ready to give us grand matches and moments worthy of the most important stage of the year at WWE. The central rivalry that moves the entire construction of the event is the one that sees Cody Rhodes on one side and the Bloodline on the other. A feud that will spread over both nights, with a Tag Team Match (Roman Reigns and The Rock vs. Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins) on Night 1 and the challenge for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship the following night.

And it would still be an understatement if we tell you that the buildup to the fights has been legendary. First was a violent thrashing of Rhodes in the rain, while in the last edition of RAW, Roman Reigns joined in to give Rhodes and Rollins a whooping. A segment where the Rock didn’t even spare the referee once RAW went off air.

In the latest edition of RAW, The Rock and Roman Reigns gave a preview of their match against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania XL. The two thrashed their opponents in the middle of the ring using a belt. In an Instagram video shared by the Rock, he revealed that when a referee tried to check on Rhodes and Rollins, he too got a taste of the leather. In the captions, the Rock wrote a warning that read, “F**ked around and found out, didn’t you boy? Everyone knows how I feel when RAW or SMACKDOWN goes off the air – just because a script says we stop, doesn’t mean The Rock stops. No one is safe. Including referees. – Final Boss.”

This comes just 2 weeks after the Rock was the lead of a very violent segment on the latest episode of RAW. The Final Boss assaulted Cody Rhodes, leaving him in a pool of blood as rain poured down on the exterior of Chicago’s Allstate Arena. Well, he surely is making WrestleMania special. And he took it further by making WrestleMania extra special for one particular fan.

During a meet and greet, Dwayne Johnson met a fan who made him a particular request: if he signed his arm, he would get a tattoo dedicated to Dwayne Johnson. The fan kept his promise and joked on social media, asking for tickets to WrestleMania in return. The Final Boss did the same and, surprised by the fan, decided to give away the entire trip for him and his daughter: tickets, flight, hotel, food… everything will be at the actor’s expense.
