[WATCH] 'Champion' Cody Rhodes demands special announcement at WWE show; teases new titles post-WrestleMania?

WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes competed in a huge 6-man tag team match against The Bloodline and made special demands in the post-match segment on the Road to WrestleMania show.

WWE delivered an action-packed House Show at Salt Lake City, UT, this Saturday, where The American Nightmare joined forces with Braun Strowman and Ricochet to take on The Usos and Solo Sikoa.

Rhodes picked up a big win for his team after pinning Jey Uso in the match. Following that, he declared his team the "official Salt Lake City 6-Man Tag Team Champions" and demanded fan-favorite announcer Samantha Irvin to resonate the title.

The crowd erupted with pop as Samantha declared her real-life partner Ricochet, his tag team partner Braun Strowman and Cody Rhodes the Salt Lake City 6-Man Tag Team Champions.

Although Cody Rhodes made the aforementioned demand in jest, it teased the possibility of WWE potentially introducing a trios championship down the line.

The American Nightmare ruthlessly mocked Solo Sikoa's expectations for himself when he last crossed paths with The Bloodline on RAW.

Cody Rhodes instigated Sikoa long enough for the latter to defy Reigns' direct order. However, it proved costly for the Enforcer as he was stunned by Rhodes.

Sikoa returned with Paul Heyman to influence Cody's match against Ludwig Kaiser on SmackDown. However, the American Nightmare remained composed and picked up a big win to add to his momentum on the Road to WrestleMania.

Soon after, The Wiseman confirmed that Cody Rhodes and Solo Sikoa would lock horns in a singles match on RAW's final show before WrestleMania 39.

The Bloodline members have historically attacked Roman Reigns' challengers ahead of big title matches to keep the advantage over the Tribal Chief. However, Cody believes neither Solo Sikoa nor Roman Reigns are prepared to cross paths with The American Nightmare over the next week.
