The epic Cody Rhodes-Roman Reigns drama unfolded on the blue brand tonight. With WrestleMania looming large, WWE did its best to pump the slated main event storyline up every week of late. On the March 22 SmackDown episode, The Tribal Chief initiated tirades against his imminent opponent before Cody Rhodes got in and evened the score. But an eccentric fan did it even earlier, dishing a hilariously offensive jibe at the Big Dog. WWE couldn’t but censor the sound on the broadcast.

Roman Reigns is losing his fan-favorite image quite abruptly. It seems not only his cousin didn’t deny acknowledging his supremacy, but also his fans eventually landed on the same page. Despite being a defining Undisputed Universal Champion for a record-breaking period, Reigns isn’t the favorite heading to Philadelphia’s battle against Cody Rhodes in less than a month. Rather, fans pipe in boos whenever he walks down the ring. Although it’s not eerie for a seasoned heel like Reigns, a fan crossed all the bars tonight. While Reigns was busy plotting his next insult against Cody Rhodes, a fan standing near the ringside hilariously roasted him in obscene language. He shouted, ‘‘You need a roomful of strangers to acknowledge you ….B**h A*…”. WWE had to cut it off for the sake of upholding dignity.

We need to see what the drama leads toward.
