Wrestling icon Matt Morgan recently weighed in on the intense rivalry between The Rock and Cody Rhodes, hinting at the possibility of a repeat scenario where The People’s Champion leaves Rhodes bleeding before his big showdown with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL.
The backstage assault on Rhodes by The Rock, culminating in Rhodes being left bloodied and humiliated, has left fans on edge.
As tensions escalate heading into WrestleMania’s monumental tag team match, where Reigns and The Rock are set to face off against Rhodes and Seth Rollins, Morgan predicts that Rhodes might once again find himself at the mercy of The Great One.
In a candid discussion on the Gigantic Pop podcast, Morgan emphasized the importance of Rhodes taking the fall in the tag team bout and speculated on the potential for another brutal encounter involving The Rock and Rhodes, possibly resulting in a scene reminiscent of their previous altercation.
“Cody needs to take the pin, and he needs to get eviscerated. Like, that’s why I was surprised The Rock did what he did last week. I thought we would get that blood at Night One of ‘Mania, where they go off the air with Cody in a pile of his own blood. Maybe they do it again,”
Morgan remarked.
Reflecting on Rhodes’ previous WrestleMania endeavors, particularly his unsuccessful bid to dethrone Reigns at WrestleMania 39,
Morgan expressed fervent support for Rhodes to emerge victorious this year, echoing the sentiments of many fans eagerly anticipating a new champion.
“[Do you think Cody should win the title?] Abso-flipping-lutely. Yes, yes, yes, yes! I will be irate if he doesn’t. I’ll be heartbroken if he doesn’t!”
Morgan exclaimed.
With tensions running high and anticipation building for WrestleMania XL, the clash between The Rock, Reigns, Rhodes, and Rollins promises to be nothing short of electrifying, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the showdown and the potential for redemption for Rhodes and Rollins following their recent beatdown on RAW.
