Roman Reigns: Cody Rhodes Is Reading The Wrong Book At This Point, We Don’t Care About His Story

Roman Reigns and The Rock send a message to Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.

The Rock & Roman Reigns will team at night one of WrestleMania 40 to face Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins in the main event. The Rock and Reigns went from potential rivals to bonded by blood at the WrestleMania 40 Kickoff in February when Rhodes disrespected their family. 

Rhodes will challenge Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at night two of WrestleMania 40. 

Appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, they were asked about Cody’s attempt to finish his story. 

“I think Cody is reading the wrong book at this point. We don’t care about his story. It’s funny because you [The Rock] told me this a long time ago. In the wrestling business, there is no call sheet like ‘He’s number one, he’s number two,’ so everybody on our roster believes they are number one. It’s a shark tank. Everybody is trying to take each other out. This guy has been chasing me for two years now. I’ve beaten him. We’ve crossed this bridge already. This is where we close the book completely on this guy, and we display what the most powerful family in wrestling is all about,” said Reigns.

Fallon asked Rock if that’s how things would go down at WrestleMania 40. 

“Do I think that’s what’s going to go down? I know that’s what is going to go down. You have a guy named Cody Rhodes. Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins are badasses in their own right. I liken Cody Rhodes to Luke Skywalker. I liked Seth Rollins to the Joker. They are unique crazy guys, but at the end of the day, there can only be one. When there is only one, you have the Tribal Chief and Final Boss. I have the pleasure of getting back into the ring. I’ve been working my ass off. I’ve been working hard, he’s been working with me. The whole idea to bring us all together was, ‘what can we do to create a main event for WrestleMania that we could say is the biggest WrestleMania of all time,’ and so here we are,” said Rock.

WrestleMania 40 is The Rock’s first advertised match since WrestleMania 29 when he faced John Cena.
