As anticipation mounts for this week’s WWE RAW in Chicago, Illinois, The Rock has made his presence felt on social media, shutting down a Cody Rhodes fan.
The Brahma Bull is gearing up to grace the final episode of the red brand before the grand spectacle of WrestleMania XL.
Cody Rhodes, set to vie for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Roman Reigns on Night 2 of WrestleMania, has a packed schedule.
Apart from his high-stakes singles encounter, Rhodes is also slated to join forces with Seth Rollins to take on The Bloodline in a colossal tag team match during Night 1.

With tensions escalating on the road to WrestleMania, The People’s Champion hasn’t held back, taking aim at Rhodes’ family in recent verbal skirmishes.
Responding to a fan’s claim that Rhodes had outwitted him on social media, the 51-year-old legend delivered a characteristic retort, instructing the fan to “shut up” and affectionately dubbing them a “goof.”
Meanwhile, former WWE writer Vince Russo has voiced his thoughts on Rhodes’ recent focus on The Rock rather than Roman Reigns during his RAW promo. Russo, speaking on Legion of RAW show, suggested that The Final Boss had already succeeded in getting into Rhodes’ head.
Emphasizing Rhodes’ seeming neglect of Reigns, despite a year-long wait for the opportunity to challenge The Tribal Chief, Russo questioned the direction of Rhodes’ narrative, particularly given the magnitude of his impending clash with Reigns at WrestleMania.
The tension between Rhodes and Reigns escalated further on the recent episode of WWE SmackDown, as the two squared off.
While Reigns initially claimed he would confront Rhodes alone, reinforcements in the form of Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa emerged.
However, Jey Uso and Seth Rollins intervened, balancing the scales and prompting The Bloodline to retreat momentarily.
As the countdown to WrestleMania continues, the drama and anticipation surrounding Rhodes’ clash with Reigns only intensify, promising an electrifying showdown at The Show of Shows.
