As the anticipation mounts for Night One of WrestleMania 40, fans eagerly await the clash between Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins as they team up to face the formidable pairing of Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and The Rock, dubbed The Final Boss.
The outcome of this epic encounter is poised to significantly influence the trajectory of Cody and Roman’s subsequent showdown on Night Two.
While many anticipate the spectacle of Rhodes and Rollins uniting against The Bloodline, doubts linger regarding their ability to coexist on such a grand stage.
Their tumultuous history, marked by fierce battles like their iconic Hell In A Cell showdown following Cody’s WWE return in 2022, fuels speculation of potential betrayals or underlying tensions that could unravel during their tag team endeavor.
Recent social media musings by Xero hint at the possibility of an alliance revival between Seth and Roman, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the unfolding drama.
Come Saturday, April 6th, at WrestleMania 40, Rhodes and Rollins must set aside their differences and synchronize their efforts to overcome The Rock and Roman Reigns in what promises to be a blockbuster tag team showdown.
Speaking on his relationship with Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins sheds light on their dynamic, acknowledging its complexity.
In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Rollins goes into the layers of mutual respect, competitive spirit, and underlying tension that define their professional and personal rapport.
“Our relationship is very complex. I think that’s the best way to put it. I think there’s mutual respect, but there is also a level of competition. There is a healthy jealousy in some capacity on both sides… So there’s respect,”
Rollins reflects candidly.
With their eyes set on victory against The Bloodline, a triumphant performance by Rhodes and Rollins on Night One not only solidifies their alliance but also potentially shields Cody from the ominous “Bloodline rules” looming over his title match with Reigns on Night Two.
