Cody Rhodes Opens Up About The Rock’s WWE Hall of Fame Callout

As a fan who has been following WWE for over two decades now, I must say that WrestleMania 40 was nothing short of spectacular! The rivalry between The Rock and Cody Rhodes was the highlight of the event, and it’s safe to say that both men delivered an unforgettable performance.


At WWE WrestleMania 40, emotions ran high as Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson butted heads with the current WWE Undisputed Champion, Cody Rhodes. The feud sparked when The Rock usurped Rhodes’ position, a move that came despite Rhodes having won the Royal Rumble to challenge Roman Reigns for the WWE Undisputed Championship.

Supporters were upset when The Rock took over as Roman Reigns’ opponent at WrestleMania 40 instead of Cody Rhodes. They voiced their dissatisfaction on social media, igniting the hashtag #GiveUsCody. In response to the public outcry, Cody Rhodes eventually battled Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

Furthermore, at WrestleMania 40, Rhodes joined forces with Seth Rollins against The Rock and Roman Reigns in a tag team bout. However, the duo of The Rock and Reigns clinched victory during the initial night. Consequently, this set up a Bloodline Rules match between Reigns and Rhodes for the following day’s event.

In an astonishing turn of events on the second night, Rhodes overcame insurmountable odds to achieve the unthinkable by vanquishing Roman Reigns, bringing an end to his 1,317-day rule as the WWE Undisputed Champion. During this heated rivalry, a thrilling showdown transpired at the WWE Hall of Fame.

40 days prior to WrestleMania 40, WWE hosted the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, during which Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson honored his grandmother, Lia Maivia. In the course of the event, The Rock addressed Cody Rhodes, who was present in the audience.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson unequivocally expressed that the upcoming match was more about emotion than business, as he was driven by his mother’s wish for him to best Cody Rhodes. This provoked a reaction from Rhodes, who rose and fixed The Rock with a determined gaze. Lately, the WWE Undisputed Champion has disclosed the thoughts swirling in his mind during that dramatic standoff.

What Cody Rhodes was thinking when The Rock called him out?

Currently, the WWE Undisputed Champion, Cody Rhodes, recently graced an episode on his new program titled “What’s On Your Mind?” This specific installment was joined by his mentor, Randy Orton. Within the show, Rhodes shared insights about The Rock’s challenge at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

“The Rock was discussing something and then suddenly began speaking directly at me, and here we have The Rock. I was wondering if I should stand up, and I did. But when should I sit down? Meanwhile, Brandy didn’t rise for him. Everyone else stood up but she didn’t. You’re the exception. Gosh, it’s so hot in here, which is her nature.”

Following Cody Rhodes’ victory over Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson stepped up to challenge him, threatening that when he makes his comeback, he intends to claim Rhodes’ title. Whispers indicate that their long-awaited match could transpire the following year at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
