As a gamer with over two decades of wrestling fandom under my belt, I must say that the epic showdown between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 40 was nothing short of spectacular. The outside influences, the chaos, and the unexpected twist that saw Cody Rhodes emerge victorious – it all added up to an unforgettable experience for fans like me.
At WrestleMania 40 held in Philadelphia, WWE Superstar Roman Reigns took center stage for his ninth main event. Facing him was none other than the Royal Rumble victor, Cody Rhodes, in a contest governed by Bloodline Rules.
Often considered the most legendary WrestleMania main event ever, this match incorporated external factors. This was evident with the presence of The Usos, Solo Sikoa, John Cena, The Rock, Seth Rollins and The Undertaker. In the midst of the pandemonium, it was Cody Rhodes who triumphed, bringing an end to Roman Reigns’ 1,317-day title reign.
Behind the scenes, wrestlers frequently exchange stories following their matches. Not long ago, Cody Rhodes disclosed an interesting incident where, after winning the WWE title, he couldn’t locate Roman Reigns in the Gorilla position. Rhodes reminisced, “He was nowhere to be found in Gorilla when I got back. He knew his reign had been historic and that he had reshaped the industry, a feat only a handful of individuals can boast.
Roman Reigns, who stepped away following his loss at WrestleMania 40, reappeared during SummerSlam. Post his return, he confronted his younger relative, Solo Sikoa, as well as the revised version of The Bloodline. Currently, Reigns is working together with the original Bloodline, while CM Punk readies himself to take on Sikoa’s reformed Bloodline in a WarGames bout.
Recently, the former Tribal Chief shared what happened backstage after his loss at WrestleMania 40.

The wrestling legend stated, “If you’re planning to spend four hours being a ‘good guy’ spectator, I’m not going to wait… I mean, how long are we talking about here? Since I’m not from Philadelphia, I had to move. So, he was right about that. We did our thing, and we were both in action.
In the continuation, he acknowledged their hard work and dedication in sports. He expressed, “So, feel free to exchange gratitude and all that, but let’s remember, we’ve both risked our physical selves for this sport, and that, I believe, is reward enough.
