The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes and the People’s Champion, The Rock, have been a topic of discussion amongst fans for some time now. Amid the speculations about one of them main eventing WrestleMania against Roman Reigns, a picture of the two stars has surfaced on the internet. It generated a lot of buzz as fans were exhilarated after seeing the picture.
The picture is from the backstage area of Raw Day 1. It was in the episode of The Red Brand that the Brahma Bull made his triumphant return to call out the Tribal Chief. The two stars greet each other in a picture while they hug each other. Fans predicted there would be some sort of animosity between the two. However, that doesn’t look like the case here.

Ever since his defeat at WrestleMania 39, Cody Rhodes has been a prominent contender to dethrone Roman Reigns. His character has always been about the story, and fans thought he would be finishing up his story at the Showcase of the Immortals this year. However, The Rock unexpectedly called out the Head of the Table on Raw, which led to speculation of him facing Reigns at WrestleMania.
Only time will tell who is going to take the main event spot against the Needle Mover at the Grandest Stage of Them All in Philadelphia. It is going to be interesting to see the road to WrestleMania this year, as it is surely going to be unpredictable. However, a rumor surfaced on the internet that the Great One might face Reigns at the Elimination Chamber in Australia as well.
Wrestling fans went wild after the picture of The Rock and Cody Rhodes went viral
The picture of The Rock and Cody Rhodes has been generating a lot of traffic on the internet. The fans looked divided under the picture, as one user claimed that the Rock must have been apologizing to Cody by stating, “Sorry for taking your spot man“. Another fan supported others by saying the match between the People’s Champion and Roman Reigns is meant for WrestleMania only. One user called it the “People’s Hug,” while another advised Rhodes to wait another year.

From the wide spectrum of point of view, here are some top reactions of the fans on X:
Furthermore, a fan on X hilariously claimed that Cody must have been hating on Dwayne Johnson right now. However, another user speculated that the Rock must have made plans with Cody in order to dethrone Roman Reigns. Besides, a positive fan claimed that it was going to be Reigns vs. Rhodes at WrestleMania this year once again.
What plans does the company have regarding The Rock, Rhodes, and Reigns is still unclear. The upcoming days could answer a few questions as fans gear up for another exciting trip for the start of the Road to WrestleMania at the Royal Rumble.
