Cody Rhodes, the undisputed WWE Champion, has reiterated his desire to face The Rock in the ring, sending a clear message to the People’s Champion that he will not back down from his challenge. This comes on the heels of his successful title defense against AJ Styles at Backlash France, where he retained his Undisputed WWE Championship.
In a post-show press conference, Rhodes was asked about his next challenger, and he dropped a bombshell, hinting at a potential match with The Rock. The American Nightmare made a cryptic comment, referring to The Rock as “The Final Boss,” and expressed his desire to take something from him, just as he claimed The Rock had returned a gift to him before his hiatus.
Rhodes’ words sparked speculation about a possible showdown between the two superstars, despite The Rock’s current hiatus from wrestling. It is worth noting that WWE had reportedly considered pairing the two in a singles match at a future PLE event in Saudi Arabia, although the plans were never confirmed.
While The Rock is not expected to return to the ring anytime soon, Cody’s determination to make this match a reality is undeniable. His bold statement has left fans wondering if the WWE Universe might witness a dream match in the not-too-distant future.
As the WWE terrain continues to evolve, one thing is certain – Cody Rhodes is not willing to give up on his quest to face The Rock. The question on everyone’s mind now is, will The Rock respond to Rhodes’ challenge, or will he remain on the sidelines, watching from afar?
With Rhodes’ next challenger set to be revealed on the upcoming SmackDown in Wilkes-Barre, PA, fans will be eagerly waiting to see if The Rock will be the one to answer the American Nightmare’s call to action.
Will we finally get to witness the epic clash of these two WWE titans? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – Cody Rhodes is not backing down from his pursuit of greatness.
