In tonight’s edition of Monday Night RAW, Cody Rhodes highlighted his thoughts on the slapping incident at the WrestleMania kickoff and how he would strike back when the ‘Architect’ Seth Rollins interrupted him.
And it has become somewhat of a ritual for WWE fans to sing along to the theme of Rollins. So they started singing to the tune; the ‘Visionary’ enjoyed the singing while Rhodes waited patiently. And it is then that the American Nightmare instructs Rollins to do something. As revealed in backstage footage.

As Rhodes and Rollins stood in the ring while the fans sang the theme of the ‘Architect’ even after it stopped playing, the American Nightmare asked Rollins to bow down before the fans and also thanked him for his help at the press conference after the Rock slapped him and Rollins lashed toward the Brahma Bull. He said, “Absolutely take a bow (inaudible). Please allow me to thank you for coming to my aid at the press conference. I appreciate it, thank you very much. “

Rollins then revealed with a smile that he understood why Rhodes chose Roman Reigns. The champion understands that he wants to finish his story, just like the rest of the world. The ‘Visionary’ further reminded him that he would face his greatest challenge. Now, it’s his last real chance to snatch the gold from Reigns and give it back to the people.
And he believes he is the right man to do it. However, it seems like Cody Rhodes got back up as Rollins reminded Rhodes that he doesn’t have to fight this battle alone. The Architect didn’t just stop there, as he stated that he’s tired of guys like Roman always getting away with it and how he feels he is responsible for the ‘Tribal Chief, as 12 years ago he brought him to the main roster and taught him everything, unbeknownst to the monster he could become. However, this time he would be helping out the Royal Rumble winner and be his shield.
