Summer Rae reacted to the segment featuring Cody Rhodes, The Rock, and Roman Reigns on WWE SmackDown
On the February 2 edition of SmackDown, Cody Rhodes revealed he would not challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania XL but rather introduced The Rock, who had a staredown with The Tribal Chief, teasing at a potential match at The Show of Shows.
After the show, Summer Rae took to Twitter to share her thoughts regarding the segment. The former WWE Superstar bashed the Stamford-based company for their decision to have Rhodes make way for the Hollywood star:
"Imagine handing over your Wrestlemania match that you beat 29 other ppl for…AFTER a two year build. I’m all for twists & turns but make it make sense! Gosh I hope we are ALL wrong. I hope it all makes sense next Fri in a Rock Roman promo, that is if either of them show up to tv," Summer Rae wrote.
Rhodes will look to finish his story at WrestleMania XL by ending The Tribal Chief's historic title reign. It will be interesting to see what role The Rock plays after he slapped The American Nightmare during the press event last night.
