WWE is no new to long-term storytelling, and it seems the seeds for the next big rivalry have already been sown on Night One ofWrestleMania 40. While initially it was supposed to be The Rock vs Roman Reigns, following the fans’ backlash, who were adamant about seeing Cody Rhodes finish his story, it was eventually scrapped.
With the Bloodline now coming on top on Night One, resulting in a Bloodline Rules match for the main event of Night Two, the American Nightmare might be in for a rough time tonight. However, following Reigns’ mistakes in the tag-team match against Rhodes and Seth Rollins, fans believe a betrayal from the Brahma Bull is likely.
Cody Rhodes to Benefit From The Rock Potentially Betraying Roman Reigns
Since the day Hollywood Rock shook hands with the Tribal Chief, many speculated that we’re in for a major betrayal atWrestleMania, and after Night One, it seems quite likely. While the duo succeeded in scoring a win over Rollins and Rhodes, the match didn’t go as clean as the Bloodline would’ve hoped for.
From Reigns asking the Final Boss to acknowledge him midway through the match toaccidentally spearinghis tag-team partner, it’s safe to say the Brahma Bull isn’t going to let that slide. Furthermore, whenThe Rockfinally made the signature hand gesture to acknowledge the Tribal chief, he used a signal of L, most likely implying loser.

“Watch your mouth”: The Rock Gets into a Heated Confrontation With a Cody Rhodes Fan at WWE’s Hall of Fame Ceremony
Speaking on theBusted Open Radiopodcast, former WWE legend Bubba Ray Dudley speculated that WWE might be planning for The Rock vs Roman Reigns atWrestleMania 41.
“I think, I could be wrong here…but I think the placement of this Roman documentary last week, they’re going to turn Roman babyface. I think Rock is going to be the heel, and they’re going to Rock-Roman, obviously at [WrestleMania] 41.”
While it’s too early to predict, keeping in mind thatWM 27was used as a setup for the Brahma Bull vs John Cena atWM 28, it’s reasonable to see why WWE might be opting for a similar route forWM 41.
