Now, a few days later, he again put out his opinion that can be considered as a warning for Rhodes. On his Instagram story, Heyman shared a cartoon portraying The Tribal chief, holding a small boy looking like Sami Zayn, by his hair. The sketch indicated Roman’s win over Zayn in the Elimination Chamber. However, when the Special Counsel shared this post on his story, he mentioned Cody while warning him about WrestleMania 39.
He wrote, “Cody Rhodes will learn the same lesson Sami Zayn had to learn…one way or another, you shall acknowledge your tribal chief!”
