The recent episode of WWE SmackDown left a mystery in the air: will Cody Rhodes answer the offer of The Rock in Elimination Chamber for a union? WWE's legend appeared to make an important announcement about Wrestlemania in New Orleans, but the most shocking of the night was his interaction with WWE's undisputed champion.
Rock called Cody to Ring and began talking about his lineage and how much he has achieved as a champion. The tribal boss until praised, but then made a difficult proposal to reject: to be “his” champion. The Rock not only offered words of admiration, but said that he wanted the “soul” of Rhodes, suggesting that under his leadership he could reach levels of greatness never imagined.
Cody, wearing something surprised and confused, responded by ensuring that he is the public champion and that his loyalty is with them, which had a good reaction from those present. However, Rock insisted and gave him an ultimatum to respond in elimination chamber.
The question that fans are now asked is: how tempting will the offer for Rhodes be? And what role did John Cena play in all this?
A new corporate family with Cody Rhodes, The Rock and Triple H?
Speculations suggest that The Rock's play is not just a strategy to attract Cody Rhodes by his side, but the beginning of a new “Corporate Family”, a group that would have The Rock and Triple H as power figures. In this scenario, Cody Rhodes would become his ideal champion, abandoning his role as the public's hero to become a rude representative of a new corporate era.
John Cena, could be the key piece that prevents this from happening. If Cena wins the elimination chamber combat, this would place this as Cody's challenger in Wrestlemania. However, if The Rock manages to convince Rhodes's mind, we could see a shocking turn in history and a great betrayal of dinner and the fanatic during the same night as Wrestlemania.
The next WWE event, Elimination Chamber, will be the scenario where Cody Rhodes must give your answer. Will you remain faithful to your way as a public champion or will you give in to the promise of greatness offered by The Rock? With the possibility of a new corporate family taking form, WWE could be on the verge of a giant change in its stories.
