Cody Rhodes will square off against Roman Reigns on Night 2 of WrestleMania 40

Cody Rhodes is all set to participate at WrestleMania 40, with his main motive being to 'Finish his Story' by winning the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Roman Reigns. Before this epic rematch, Rhodes will be engaged in a high-profile tag team showdown on Night One of the big show.

Seth Rollins and Jey Uso have already aligned themselves with Cody in his battle against the Samoan faction. However, there are also several reasons why Brandi Rhodes must come out of retirement to aid her husband at 'Mania 40.

Brandi Rhodes is angry with The Bloodline for its actions against Cody Rhodes

Despite having no physical presence on television, Brandi Rhodes is actively engaged in the rivalry between The American Nightmare and The Bloodline. The wife of Cody has openly shown her anger over all that has happened between her husband and The Bloodline.

Even she took shots at the Final Boss, stating that if she comes to the standard of The Rock she can also be pretty amazing as she only needs a belt in her hand for a beatdown. So, considering her anger, Brandi's involvement in the WrestleMania match will indeed make perfect sense.

Moreover, The American Nightmare also recently teased the presence of Brandi Rhodes at 'Mania, heightening the chances of her assisting him against the Bloodline.

For those unaware, Brandi disclosed her being a full-time mother to Liberty and her health and wellness business as reasons for ending her career in the squared circle.

To protect Cody Rhodes' mother from The Rock

The storyline between Rhodes and The Bloodline is not limited to The American Nightmare. The People's Champion has already extended it to the mother of Rhodes. Since the initiation of the feud, The Final Boss has brought up Rhodes' mother on various occasions by referring to her as "Mama Rhodes" on television. In addition, Cody Rhodes has also confirmed the presence of his mother in the biggest match of his WWE career.

The People's Champion has also made a disturbing promise to Mama Rhodes for WrestleMania which increases the chances of The Great One taking things too far. So, Brandi Rhodes seems to be the perfect option to protect Mama Rhodes from The Bloodline even though she already has enough reasons to interfere in this ongoing storyline.

To briefly rejuvenate her in-ring career

A return of Brandi Rhodes at WrestleMania 40 will not only allow the company to add more family drama to the rivalry between Cody Rhodes and The Bloodline but will also serve as a window to rejuvenate Brandi Rhodes' in-ring career.

Involvement in the Rhodes and Bloodline Saga at The Showcase of The Immortals is possibly the biggest way the Stamford-based promotion can put Brandi over for a potential comeback.

Not only this, but Brandi also has a great heated history with the newly debuted Jade Cargill. So, if she comes out of retirement at WrestleMania 40 then, in the forthcoming months, WWE might put her in a brief feud with Cargill, given their rivalry at AEW.
