In recent rumors, The Rock vs. Roman Reigns was speculated to headline WrestleMania 40, drawing criticism from fans who rallied behind Cody Rhodes for the main event slot.
However, at the WrestleMania 40 Kickoff press conference, Cody Rhodes took a shot at Reigns and The Rock’s grandfathers, leading to The Great One slapping The American Nightmare.
Triple H subsequently confirmed Cody Rhodes vs. Roman Reigns for the main event of WrestleMania 40. While this match is set, there’s still room for The Rock to play a crucial role in The Bloodline storyline.
The Rock’s return to WWE is aimed at adding star power to WrestleMania. Even though a direct feud between The Hollywood megastar and Reigns may not be the current plan, The Rock could be a significant ally for The Tribal Chief leading up to WrestleMania. This strategic move could pave the way for Reigns’ face turn.
The potential matchup between The Rock and Roman Reigns is not just about the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship but also signifies the conclusion of The Bloodline’s story.
With The Great One portraying a despised heel, WWE has the opportunity to capitalize on this and orchestrate Reigns’ face turn at WrestleMania 40. The betrayal angle could position The Bloodline as the top babyface faction in WWE, marking a significant shift in their character dynamics.
As The Rock and Roman Reigns are scheduled to appear on the upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown, there’s anticipation of an engaging storyline.
With the tension escalating between The Game (Triple H) and The Brahma Bull over the WrestleMania 40 main event, a lengthy feud between them seems likely in the lead-up to The Show of Shows. The unfolding events on SmackDown promise an intriguing build-up to WrestleMania 40.
