roman vs cody

Following the conclusion of WWE Royal Rumble, the landscape for the main event at WrestleMania 40 has come into focus. Cody Rhodes, also known as the American Nightmare, emerged victorious in the Royal Rumble 2023 and subsequently challenged Roman Reigns in the headline bout of WrestleMania 39. However, he fell short against the Tribal Chief. After a prolonged feud with Brock Lesnar that concluded at SummerSlam 2023, Cody secured another Royal Rumble win in 2024.

WWE’s Instagram account shared a revealing video capturing Roman Reigns’ reaction to Cody Rhodes’ Royal Rumble victory. The video, laden with facial expressions, underscores the evident concern and disturbance in Reigns due to Cody’s triumph.

The Royal Rumble 2024 has etched its place in history, marking the commencement of the Road to WrestleMania 40. Cody’s back-to-back Royal Rumble victories, eliminating CM Punk to secure the win, is a rare feat accomplished only once before by Stone Cold Steve Austin in 1997 and 1998.

The question looming now is whether Roman Reigns’ anticipated dream match of the decade will materialize at WrestleMania 40. Cody Rhodes, determined to complete his narrative with a victory over the Tribal Chief, now has the golden opportunity to face Reigns once again on the grand stage after winning the Royal Rumble. However, this raises the specter of fans being potentially deprived of the much-anticipated dream match between The Rock and Roman Reigns.

Speculations suggest the possibility of a triple threat match at WrestleMania 40, featuring Cody Rhodes, the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns, and The Rock. This scenario would add a unique twist to the grandest stage of them all, leaving fans eager to see how the Road to WrestleMania unfolds this year.
