On the recent WWE Raw episode, the spotlight was on Cody Rhodes as he celebrated an unprecedented achievement—back-to-back Royal Rumble victories. However, his joyous moment took an unexpected turn when Seth Rollins made a timely interruption.
The WWE World Heavyweight Champion had a pressing message for Rhodes, one that couldn’t be delayed.
Amidst the cheers and a supportive ‘You deserve it!’ chant from the crowd, Rhodes found himself sharing the ring with Rollins. Contrary to Rhodes’ plans of challenging Roman Reigns for WrestleMania 40 after the Royal Rumble win, Rollins suggested a different path – Cody should contemplate going for Rollins’ own title.
Rollins not only extended congratulations but also provided compelling reasons why the Raw-specific WWE World Heavyweight Championship held more weight than the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. He playfully referred to Reigns’ title as the ‘Hollywood title,’ implying it lacked the authentic wrestling merit of the World Heavyweight Championship.
With a hint of humor, Rollins dubbed his own championship the ‘Dusty Rhodes Championship’ and urged Cody to consider which title truly carried more significance. Cody, visibly swayed by Rollins’ words, concluded the segment by expressing he would ‘think about it.’
