In a recent episode of the Keepin’ It 100 podcast, wrestling veteran Konnan sparked excitement among fans by suggesting a thrilling ladder match between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41. This potential showdown comes on the heels of their back-to-back main events at WrestleMania 39 and 40, where the scores are currently level, with each superstar having notched a victory over the other.
Recalling their previous encounters, Reigns bested Rhodes in an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match at WrestleMania 39, only for Rhodes to turn the tables and capture the title in a Bloodline Rules match at this year’s Show of Shows. Konnan, aware of the electrifying chemistry between the two superstars, believes that a ladder match would be the perfect setting for their next encounter.
Konnan’s co-host, Disco Inferno, shared his enthusiasm for the idea, acknowledging the undeniable appeal of a Rhodes-Reigns rematch. The excitement around this potential match is amplified by the recent developments in the WWE terrain. After losing the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania XL, Roman Reigns went on hiatus, while Rhodes shifted his focus to SmackDown, engaging in a feud with AJ Styles.
Rhodes successfully defended his title against Styles at Backlash France, and during the post-event press conference, he revealed his desire to face LA Knight in a future title defense. Knight, who has voiced his ambition to win his first main roster title this year, could potentially cross paths with Rhodes in the coming months.
While the road to WrestleMania 41 is still long, the prospect of a Cody Rhodes-Roman Reigns ladder match has already generated significant buzz. With their storied history and the anticipation surrounding a potential rematch, it’s no wonder that fans are salivating at the thought of these two wrestling giants clashing once again.
Will WrestleMania 41 be the stage for this epic showdown? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the WWE universe is ready for another thrilling chapter in the Cody Rhodes-Roman Reigns saga.
