We are just a couple of months away from the biggest WWE premium live event of this year, that’s Wrestlemania 40 around which plans are reportedly in the making for a long time. Speculations around the upcoming event are all-time high and previous reports also noted how the company had plans set for the show even before the 39th edition passed by from Hollywood.
That being said, it was evident that a rematch was always in the pipeline for Wrestlemania 40 for the prized title in the WWE. But then again The Rock is back in the company after a long time and he also wants to be a part of the Show of Shows.
With that, the big topic of discussion on the road to WrestleMania 40 is which match should eventually headline Night Two of the show with two singles matches on WWE’s radar – Roman Reigns vs. The Rock or Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes.

During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, AEW star Dustin Rhodes, the half-brother of Cody Rhodes also vouched for the latter to headline WrestleMania 40 for the WWE Title with the following title,
“I hope Cody’s in the main event spot against Roman. Or it’s going to be The Rock. If it is The Rock, I’m pis*ed – this is Cody’s time. He is becoming the face of the company, and it’s paying off. But I get it. If it is The Rock, it’s still good business. I understand that there are a lot of people who love seeing The Rock. But I still think it’s Cody’s moment.”
