The rivalry between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes had a long tumultuous history. While Rhodes hustled to get his ticket to WrestleMania 40 after last year’s shattering blow, The Rock’s abrupt return placed more challenges in his path.
Now, after receiving unbridled backlash from the audiences, the dust has finally settled with the American Nightmare gaining back his spot. However, he has to undergo a deciding tag team match against his foes alongside Seth Rollins on the inaugural Mania night.
If Rhodes doesn’t have his luck on point during that match, the next day will feature outright Bloodline dominance and his dream of glory would remain a tougher catch for the 38-year-old. Moving ahead, Bully Ray pitched a unique layer in the highly hyped Cody-Roman saga.
Bully Ray offers an intriguing booking scenario for WrestleMania Night 1
It seems the WWE veteran is not on the same page as the betting odds. Ray rather foresees a loss for the newly minted Seth Rollins-Cody Rhodes pair in the night 1. He also suggested a clear angle to enact it that way. Speaking on the latest episode of the Busted Open Radio, Ray dished out his prediction. The WWE Hall of the Famer thinks WWE can stretch over Rhodes’ torn biceps muscle, which is not supposed to fully recover yet. According to his take, it will be wise if the creative makes Bloodline and The Rock to add to that injury again, making Rhodes fragile for the final night.
