It was time for the main event on day two of WrestleMania 39. In just a matter of minutes, Cody Rhodes was going to face WWE Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns for the title. Over 80,000 spectators waited with bated breath. Then came a massive pop as the LED screens lit up with Cody Rhodes’ hologram and his entrance music was played. In walked Rhodes and after acknowledging the fanfare, walked to his family who sat ringside.

Rhodes kissed his wife Brandi and picked up their daughter Liberty as he indulged in a familial moment. What he did next was a special gesture. After acknowledging his sister and mother, Rhodes hugged a young boy and gave him his weight belt. It was none other than the son of deceased wrestler Jonathan Huber, who appeared in WWE as Luke Harper and as Brodie Lee in the rival AEW.
