"Amazed by Italy. Next stop…Vienna, Austria," he wrote.

Cody Rhodes said he is looking forward to The Rock's impending WWE return
On the RAW after WrestleMania XL, The Rock confronted Cody Rhodes and said that their story was not finished. The Brahma Bull also mentioned that he would return soon to go after The American Nightmare.
During his interview on X (formerly Twitter) alongside Triple H, Rhodes said he did not get any closure on his story with The Final Boss and mentioned that he was looking forward to the latter's impending return to the Stamford-based promotion.
"I'd be remiss you know, I don't want to just leave it out there but I didn't get any closure on the situation with The Rock particularly with him giving me something back that was something he should've kept and I feel that closure in wrestling that's one of the beautiful things about sports entertainment wrestling, WWE. If you think that closure's going to happen stay tuned, it might. But it might happen in a very different way so I look forward to his return," he said.
