If Roman Reigns defeats Sami Zayn at the forthcoming Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event, next up on the docket is his WrestleMania 39 match against Cody ...
I’m a man on the roster and I wanna be the top man but in the case of the video packages, the vignettes and the build up (to my return), that was, and I think it’s an okay thing to share, that was Triple H’s idea and the team around him. I showed up in the best shape of my freaking life and I was able to get it done. Buddy, this guy is the best of the best in terms of strength, in terms of conditioning. Sometimes, and this is more just in general, I think sometimes it’s nice as a wrestler, as a superstar competitor, to call your shot. Can’t be argued and I’m not thinking about any type of victory lap or celebration other than I’m thinking about making sure I don’t get hit square in the mouth with a Superman Punch. I do love there was a parallel, as we all know, ‘Beautiful Day’ and I got to have — The Score did such a good job with ‘Born for This’ and it’s a fun package, plus Pharaoh got to be in the video. I am me, always and that’s a little scary, that’s intimidating if you’re saying, ‘He’s coming back at the Royal Rumble.’ ‘I’m coming back at the Royal Rumble and everybody needs to get off the mountain’ or whatever it is that I said. We’re at a point where I love my brother so much and as I get closer to this, I think about him every day, I really do and that would be special, it would. Ahead of that show, Rhodes made the media rounds and [sat down with Alex McCarthy of Inside The Ropes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hn4ZfXUhMZE&t=201s). WWE is always super anonymous in terms of the team but I have to shout out Colleen (Pucherelli), J.B. He was asked about the idea of AEW’s Dustin Rhodes being at WrestleMania 39 to celebrate a potential title win. It would take some people getting along to agree but, that also is very cart before horse because currently, what stands in front of me and I mean, there’s no hyperbole in what I say, is Roman Reigns.
Cody Rhodes suggested the storylines the WWE has going right now are better than what The Rock could be thrown into for WrestleMania 39.
[HULK HOGAN SHARES VIDEO IMITATING RIC FLAIR AMID RUMORS HE 'COULDN'T FEEL HIS LOWER BODY'](https://www.foxnews.com/sports/hulk-hogan-shares-video-imitating-ric-flair-rumors-couldnt-feel-lower-body) "Now I don’t know if anyone can beat Roman Reigns, I truly don’t, but for me, it’s about picking up the chip," he added. Rhodes winning the 30-man Royal Rumble match meant he gets a shot at Reigns for the championship. "One story about finishing something that started in 1978 – seven years before I was even born – and another story of really the tragedy of being welcomed into The Bloodline and then what you saw unfolds. First, Reigns will battle Sami Zayn at WWE’s Elimination Chamber event on Feb. However, the wrestling legend did not return while other storylines blossomed.
Emotions were running high on Monday Night Raw as Cody Rhodes and Paul Heyman came face to face in a spine-tingling encounter.
Paul Heyman was in tears as he tried to compose himself and bring things back to business, which he soon did. Cody Rhodes recalled his family falling on hard times, with Heyman putting in a call to Dusty Rhodes to appear in ECW and paying him handsomely as a result. Heyman’s association with the Rhodes family dates back decades and that history was soon made very public by The American Nightmare.
The Road to WWE WrestleMania 39 continues to heat up. The February 6 edition of Monday Night Raw featured important matches and promos looking forward ...
The field for the Raw Women's Championship match is set, and only half of the entrants come off as possible winners. Rhodes may still have more to prove, but he stole the show here with ease. He can fly off the Chamber or climb straight across it to get where he needs for spots that will have the crowd completely behind him. Niven comes off as a more likely winner and would change the dynamic of the entire contest with her size and strength. She comes off as a bigger star and brings a unique presence to a women's roster in need of fresh matches. However, another woman has been stepping up in recent weeks and was better suited to win the final spot in the No. Lita and Trish Stratus have history to spare as the two helped define the women's division together. Carmella captured the final place in the Elimination Chamber bout to crown the No. The best way to handle this is by bringing in one more legend to help The Man. Becky Lynch and Bayley finally got their steel cage match, and they made the most of the main event spotlight. The February 6 edition of WWE Raw featured important matches and promos looking toward Elimination Chamber and WrestleMania 39. Becky Lynch defeated Bayley in a competitive steel cage match, ending with the appearance of Lita.
It sounds like Sami Zayn is the reason WWE went all-in on the Cody Rhodes/Paul Heyman segment on last night's February 6 episode of Raw.

With his spot in the main event of WrestleMania 39 officially booked, Cody Rhodes doesn't think WWE needs The Rock in Hollywood.
Will Rhodes’ match against Rigns outshine The Rock, or even Zayn, the “current superstar” many fans are still hoping ends up in the main event of WrestleMania 39 one way or another? Or will the immeasurable weight of the match’s expectations lead to some wondering whether or not the match would have been better with Dwayne Johnson or even Zayn featured in the ring? “With all the respect in the world to one of the GOATs The Rock, it looks like the options we have here within the roster are even better because of the stories that are happening,” Rhodes said. I’m looking for a championship title belt, the most important one in our world the biggest in all – not just in the WWE bubble but in all the bubbles – and be the first to say as a Rhodes I did it, and it wasn’t Dusty Rhodes and it wasn’t Dustin Rhodes it was Cody Rhodes.” Most likely, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t blind to the other storylines involving The Fed’s current “Head of the Table,” Reigns, who has a date with Sami Zayn in Montreal, Quebec, Canada at Elimination Chamber before he heads out to Hollywood for two nights at SoFi Stadium. When asked about Zayn’s current storyline with Reigns, Rhodes complimented the “Underdog from the Underground” for
Cody Rhodes is slated to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title at WrestleMania 39. For now, the exact night the match will happen.
