WWE icon Rikishi has recently responded to The Rock’s fiery promo on social media, where he issued a stern warning to Cody Rhodes, even mentioning Rhodes’ mother.
Last week, tensions escalated between The American Nightmare and The Great One, resulting in Rhodes slapping The Rock after being labeled a ‘mistake.’ This week on RAW, Rhodes became emotional while discussing his mother.
In his latest social media post, The Rock unleashed another scathing promo, directly addressing Rhodes’ tearful display on live television.
He not only threatened Rhodes’ mother but also declared his intention to use his weight belt to punish Rhodes, promising to hand the championship belt to his mother afterward.

Reacting to this intense exchange, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi shared The Rock’s promo on his official Instagram account.
As fans eagerly dissect The Rock’s words, many wonder what exactly he said to provoke such a reaction. In his promo, The Brahma Bull left no stone unturned, stating that Cody’s story would culminate at WWE WrestleMania XL, dubbing himself “The Final Boss.”
“And that’s how you end a story. And that is how, Cody Rhodes, your story is going to end at WrestleMania, boy. Crying in a pool of your own blood and this belt sitting in your momma’s lap. And Mama Rhodes, don’t worry, there’s two things that you can do about it: Nothing and like it. Cody Rhodes, at WrestleMania, your story is going to end courtesy of Roman Reigns and courtesy of your nightmare. The Final Boss. If ya’ smell what The Rock is cooking.”
The aftermath of The Rock’s provocative remarks remains uncertain. Given Rhodes’ close relationship with his mother, the situation is likely to evoke strong emotions.
Fans await Rhodes’ response to this significant threat with bated breath.
