Headlining WrestleMania 40: Cody Rhodes - Seth Rollins - Drew McIntyre and The Rock Promise Epic Battles

WrestleMania 40 Anticipation Soars: Cody Rhodes, Seth Rollins, and Drew McIntyre Set WWE Raw Ablaze

The aftermath of Cody Rhodes’ decision to defer his WrestleMania 40 moment to The Rock ignited a firestorm of excitement on WWE Raw’s February 5th edition. With The Rock’s recent return on SmackDown stirring the pot, the anticipation for what would unfold on Raw was palpable.

Seth Rollins wasted no time, stepping into the spotlight to summon Cody Rhodes to the ring. Rollins, driven by ambition, laid down the gauntlet for Rhodes at WrestleMania 40, emphasizing the stakes for both competitors.

The crowd added to the charged atmosphere with chants echoing throughout the arena, from ‘We Want Cody’ to ‘Rocky Sucks!’. Michael Cole’s commentary only added to the nostalgia, musing, “Is it 1996 again?”

But the dynamics shifted with the entrance of Drew McIntyre, injecting a new layer of intensity into the proceedings. McIntyre passionately urged Rhodes to reconsider his championship aspirations, invoking the memory of Rhodes’ late father, Dusty Rhodes.

Tempers flared as Rollins challenged McIntyre’s assumption of being the natural contender in Rhodes’ absence. The confrontation escalated, culminating in McIntyre launching an attack on Rollins, only to be driven away by Rhodes.

With WWE teasing various potential matchups – Rhodes vs. Rollins, Rhodes vs. McIntyre, or even a three-way clash involving all three superstars – uncertainty hung thick in the air. The possibility of a Rollins-McIntyre showdown also lingered, contingent on WWE’s handling of Rhodes’ trajectory.

As the WrestleMania saga continues to unfold, fans brace themselves for the next chapter in this gripping narrative.
