3. John Cena turns heel to join The Rock

John Cena is set to compete in the Men’s Elimination Chamber match in Toronto, vying for a WrestleMania opportunity against Cody Rhodes. While The Rock has urged The American Nightmare to be “his champion,” there’s a strong possibility that another star could step up to The Final Boss regarding that offer—and one of them might be The Cenation Leader himself.

While Cena has accomplished nearly everything in his career, a heel turn remains one of the most intriguing possibilities for fans. If he accepts The Great One’s shocking offer, it could usher in a new chapter for the 16-time champion. Moreover, the idea of The Rock and John Cena—once bitter rivals—now joining forces to seize control of WWE would be a game-changing twist that could shake the very foundation of WrestleMania.

2. Roman Reigns returns to confront The Final Boss

The Rock made several controversial statements on SmackDown, including a striking remark about always wanting a “brother.” This caught fans’ attention, as Roman Reigns has long been his family in WWE, yet he now seeks that bond with Cody Rhodes. This detail has sparked speculation about The OTC’s involvement, with many predicting that Reigns could make a shocking return at the Elimination Chamber.

The Needle Mover could appear in Toronto to confront The Final Boss. He might question The Rock’s sudden shift in allegiance and his motives for aligning with Rhodes. This could spark a heated showdown between the two megastars. It may also tease the long-awaited clash fans have anticipated for over a decade.

1. Cody Rhodes sells his soul to achieve the epitome

Cody Rhodes’ serious expression hinted at temptation despite finding The Rock’s offer outrageous. Noticing this, The Brahma Bull gave him time to decide. With Elimination Chamber nearing, The American Nightmare might shock the world by selling his soul to The Great One.

If this happens, it could mark Cody Rhodes’ long-awaited heel turn. Aligning with The Final Boss as his corporate champion, he could seize control of WWE. This transformation would redefine his character, making him more ruthless and calculated. It could also spark the rise of a ‘Homelander’ version of Rhodes, driven by power and entitlement.
