Cody Rhodes was never intended to be mistreated on his journey to WrestleMania, as per Triple H’s plan.
The saga of Cody Rhodes has once again gained new life. After refusing to face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, fans expressed their dissatisfaction on social media. This led to WWE changing their decision and once again including Cody Rhodes in the storyline. A recent report suggests that the original plans for Rhodes and Reigns were different.
According to Dave Meltzer via PWMania, Triple H had planned for the Bloodline to attack Cody Rhodes on the February 2nd episode of SmackDown. Following this, a match between Roman Reigns and Rhodes was supposed to be announced at WrestleMania kickoff, marking Rhodes’ return. However, everything changed after CM Punk announced his injury on Raw after the Royal Rumble.
Therefore, convincing Cody Rhodes to choose him at WrestleMania was also a spontaneous decision. Furthermore, the report reveals that Triple H never wanted Rhodes to be mistreated by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson at any point. After all the chaos, Cody finally secured his match at WrestleMania Kickoff.
Currently, Cody Rhodes is set to face the Head of the Table for the Undisputed Championship. Despite The Rock vowing to destroy Rhodes at the Show of Shows after joining The Bloodline, only time will tell how many ups and downs this blockbuster feud will have leading to the Showcase of Immortals.
Triple H has played a significant role in WWE programming recently. As the Chief Content Officer of the company, he is responsible for the overall product. Fans noticed some tension between him and The Rock during the WrestleMania kickoff press conference. This tension continued on SmackDown, where Triple H delivered a fierce promo. Speculation has been rife about whether the King of Kings will once again step into the ring to face The Rock at WrestleMania.
Although Triple H has been teasing his involvement in the Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns storyline, it is highly unlikely that he will have a major role going forward. Triple H retired from the wrestling ring a few years ago due to significant health challenges he faced during his last few matches. It was later revealed that the former WWE Champion has some heart issues, making it difficult for him to compete in the ring.
Therefore, it is unlikely that Triple H will ever compete in the WWE ring, let alone at WrestleMania 40. In essence, he may have a few confrontations with The Rock on the road to WrestleMania, but that’s about it. However, the world of professional wrestling is unpredictable. It will be interesting to see the role of the Cerebral Assassin on the road to the Show of Shows this year.
