Last month, Cody Rhodes won the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble match to headline WrestleMania 40. Unfortunately, the recent turn of events has created a dire situation for WWE after a major change in plan earlier this month. The biggest wrestling sensation, ‘The Rock,’ returned to Friday Night SmackDown in a major stare-down against the Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns, which entirely changed the WrestleMania 40 plot. As a result, WWE fans were left confused following the American Nightmare’s unsure WrestleMania opponent.
Has Cody Rhodes finalized his WrestleMania 40 opponent?
Recently, Cody Rhodes took to his Instagram story to quote about his decision. Although it doesn’t specify who his WrestleMania opponent will be, it is quite clear fans will get his answer soon.

In his Instagram post, he said, “I ‘ve made my decision”.
This hints that Cody Rhodes is ready to make his final choice between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. The American Nightmare’s decision has yet to be officially decided, but fans are pushing WWE for Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes 2. Fans have shown immense support for the former WWE Intercontinental Champion to finish his story with the Tribal Chief. On the other hand, WWE is willing to push Roman Reigns vs The Rock at WrestleMania 40, which reportedly was supposed to occur last year in SoFi Stadium.
Tonight, WWE has scheduled WrestleMania Kickoff Press Event, where fans would likely get Cody Rhodes’s final decision for a world title shot. Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, The Rock, Seth Rollins, and other notable stars will attend the KickOff Press Event.
Drew McIntyre urges the American Nightmare to finish his story
On a recent episode of Monday Night Raw, Seth Rollins confronted Cody Rhodes for setting up his WrestleMania bout for the World Heavyweight title defense. However, Drew McIntyre jumped in to push Rhodes for his match with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40. Moreover, he also took shots at CM Punk for missing his chance to main event WrestleMania, following his injury last month. Eventually, McIntyre and Rhodes ended up in a heated segment on Monday Night Raw.
