Shocking ending planned for Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes vs. The Bloodline, believes former World Champion, at Bad Blood
A former WWE World Heavyweight Champion believes Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes' match against The Bloodline would see a shocking ending at the Bad Blood Premium Live Event. The name in question is Mark Henry.
On this week's episode of SmackDown, Reigns helped Rhodes fend off The Bloodline's attack after The American Nightmare defeated Solo Sikoa. In the last segment of the show, The Original Tribal Chief and the Undisputed WWE Champion unwillingly signed a contract to team up to face Sikoa and Jacob Fatu at Bad Blood.
During a recent edition of the Busted Open podcast, Mark Henry said that he does not believe Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns could work well together as a tag team. The World's Strongest Man also mentioned that fans could see a shocking ending to the match with Cody and Roman not helping each other, which could lead to them losing the bout.
"I think it's good, I don't think they're going to work good together as a tag team because once one [of them] is in, he's going to try to finish it. You know like, Cody's going to try to finish it on his own. Roman's getting in, the last thing he's going to do is tag Cody in to help him. So that's gonna be the demise of their being in a tag team," he said. [From 17:48 to 18:15]

Dutch Mantell was full of praise for Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns segment on WWE SmackDown
During the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk podcast, Dutch Mantell talked about Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns' segment before they signed the contract.
Mantell said he liked that Rhodes and Reigns did not act like buddies just because they were going to team up together at Bad Blood.
"I liked Cody's line, 'You were before WrestleMania.' That's what he was saying, 'You lost all claims right then, and it came to me. I didn't like you saying that.' And he was pissed off. I do like he and Roman are not buddy-buddy. They literally still hate each other, and that's the feeling they're giving off. They'll play upon that later. But they played that part right. So all in all, I think the closing segment was good."
