Cody Rhodes emerged victorious from WrestleMania XL, clinching the Undisputed WWE Championship. His first challenge awaits, with either LA Knight or AJ Styles vying for a shot, determined by tonight’s showdown on Friday Night SmackDown.
Despite Rhodes’s triumph, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson remains a formidable presence.
On a recent episode of WWE RAW, he warned Rhodes of drawing his blood, a threat he later fulfilled. The Rock hinted at a future clash, reaffirming his resolve in a recent Instagram post.
“I love taking out the trash in the rain. I’m gonna bleed you boy. The hard way. For life. As the Final Boss rides off into the sunset, You and all the @wwe talent and executives remember this… It didn’t have to be this way. But now it’s the only way. Don’t f*ck with the Final Boss. Because the Final Boss always has the FINAL SAY. Do not go gentle into that good night,”
wrote The Rock.
Meanwhile, The Megastar of WWE, Rhodes, dubbed his adversary AJ Styles a “perpetual loser” ahead of their WrestleMania XL rematch on SmackDown.
While Knight’s rise to prominence has intrigued fans, a potential title match between him and Rhodes poses a significant challenge.
Bully Ray, speaking on the Busted Open Radio podcast, voiced concerns over Knight’s capacity to challenge Rhodes, citing the absence of a formidable heel. Rhodes, having bested A-list WWE Superstars like Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns, faces a brewing storm from The Final Boss.
