The Rock made one of the most tempting offers ever seen to Cody Rhodes in the last edition of SmackDown. The Final Boss offered WWE's undisputed champion a life of brightness, glamor and undisputed success if the latter chose to become “his champion.”
Cody Rhodes is known for being an independent man and not accepting shortcuts towards success. However, if The American Nightmare changes their minds, here are four things in this alliance that could benefit the reigning world champion.
#4. Cody Rhodes could reduce the defenses of his WWE undisputed championship
The American Nightmare is proud to be a working champion, fighting night after night, either on television or live events. However, the 39 -year -old man might not want to work as hard as he currently becomes Heel.
If Cody Rhodes sells his soul to The Rock, his titular reign could become similar to that of his predecessor, Roman Reigns. His title defenses and VWE television appearances could be reduced, giving him time to be with his family.
Similar to Reigns, Rhodes could appear only in important events, helping him prolong his reign.
#3. This association could start the rivalry between Roman Reigns and The Rock
During one of his best segments heading to Bad Blood 2024, Roman Reigns told Cody Rhodes that he would return to take what was his. Seeing The Rock helping Rhodes staying as a champion and progressing in life could hurt The Head of the Table if The American Nightmare joins The Final Boss.
After Wrestlemania 41, the unexpected alliance could trigger a rivalry between Roman Reigns and The Rock. The Boss final helping the man who took everything to his family could lead the undisputed tribal chief to confront his cousin.
His fief could begin at the Summerslam this year, eventually leading to a confrontation in the ring in Wrestlemania 42, which we now know that it will be held in New Orleans.
#2. The new Bloodline could align with WWE's undisputed champion
Since the Royal Rumble Male won in 2023, both versions of The Bloodline have been a big problem for The American Nightmare. If Rhodes narrows the hand of The Final Boss, the new Bloodline could finally cease to be an obstacle to him.
The Rock could instruct only Sikoa and company that does not interfere with the affairs of the undisputed champion. Not only that could also order the group to help Cody, turning the 39 -year -old man into the stable leader when The Boss is not present. This would do the American Nightmare untouchable in the company.
#1. This could turn Cody Rhodes into one of the greatest heels in WWE and give rise to new babyfaces
Many WWE fans have been waiting for the moment when The American Nightmare becomes Heel. That moment could finally arrive in the elimination chamber PLE if Cody sells his soul to The Rock. Then we could see one of the biggest races like Heel of this era by Rhodes.
However, this could also lead to new babyfaces at the scene of the main event. The Knight, which is already a great favorite of fans, could finally become a player of the main event.
We could also obtain a Wrestlemania XL roles investment history in the future, with Cody Rhodes being the definitive heel and Roman Reigns being the definitive babyface.
