Cody Rhodes opens up about his WrestleMania XL match against Roman Reigns
WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes recently spoke about how his match with Roman Reigns came together on the Road to WrestleMania XL.
On Night Two of WrestleMania 40, The American Nightmare faced his arch-rival, The Tribal Chief in a singles match. Rhodes came out alongside his wife, Brandi Rhodes. After a back-and-forth brawl, the bout was full of twists and turns, as we witnessed Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, Solo Sikoa, and Seth Rollins interfere, ending with John Cena, The Rock, and The Undertaker's appearances. Finally, it was The American Nightmare's turn to taste victory, hitting a Cross Rhodes Trinity, to pick up the win.
While speaking in an interview on TODAY, the new Undisputed WWE Universal Champion mentioned how the plans were changed keeping in mind the fans' desire. He added how sweet the feeling of victory is, and he owes it entirely to the fans.
"Oh! It feels just so sweet and it's validating because this main-event of yesterday's WrestleMania 40 was totally willed into existence by the fans. We were gonna go one way, thinking The Rock vs. Roman Reigns. They made it clear they wanted something else and we got to the finish line. Extremely validating." [From 0:46 to 01:06]
