The latest episode of Monday Night Raw saw all hell breaking loose in the WWE Arena. Fans in Chicago loudly cheered for Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins when they came to the rescue of Jey Uso. The Bloodline members Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso had almost attacked Jey once again, but Rhodes and Rollins went in for the save. However, the landscape changed when Dwayne Johnson arrived on the scene.

The Rock faced an isolated Cody Rhodes backstage at the WWE Arena where he was fighting both Jimmy Uso and Sikoa. He got isolated from Seth Rollins because of Drew McIntyre’s interference. This created the perfect opportunity for Dwayne Johnson to barge in and thrash Rhodes. However, a Judgment Day member pointed something out in all of this that looks like a plothole.

When Dwayne Johnson wasn’t hindered at all

Cody Rhodes didn’t seem to have a problem despite going singlehandedly against Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa. However, when Dwayne Johnson arrived, his brute strength immediately made The American Nightmare helpless. The Rock didn’t seem to stop at anything and slammed Rhodes on walls, and threw several objects at him as well.

Speaking about the backstage assault, Damian Priest tweeted on X, “No Security.” The remark pointed out the lack of any personnel who tried to stop Dwayne Johnson and break his fight with Cody Rhodes. This stands in contrast to the sheer number of WWE Security Guards who appeared at the WrestleMania kickoff when Johnson slapped Rhodes.

But, seeing a WWE Superstar not getting hindered backstage is a rather common sight. In fact, Damian Priest and the Judgment Day have used this to their advantage several times. Moreover, it has also been used to set the premise of several big matches, like Roman Reigns versus Braun Strowman.

Interestingly, several fans took a dig at Señor Money in the Bank. They said that instead of tweeting, he could have cashed in the contract against Seth Rollins. While Priest missed his chance, Dwayne Johnson made full use of the lack of security. In fact, he even fulfilled one of his own prophecies while thrashing Cody Rhodes.

When The Rock sent a bloody message to Mama Rhodes

Dwayne Johnson had previously threatened Cody Rhodes and his mother, Michelle Rubio, on WWE and reiterated the same via an Instagram post. Johnson had noted that he would stain his belt with the blood of Rhodes and get his mom’s tears on it at WrestleMania XL. The backstage assault by The Final Boss saw the pre-fulfilling of part one of the prophecy.

Dwayne Johnson had bloodied Cody Rhodes by slamming his head against a truck of The Wheatley American, Rhodes’ vodka brand. He later smeared his belt which had the words ‘Mama Rhodes’ written on it along with the logo of The Brahma Bull.
