Heading into the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event, Cody Rhodes had successfully defended the Undisputed WWE Championship twice against Solo Sikoa. At Bad Blood, he teamed up with the returning Roman Reigns to defeat Sikoa and Jacob Fatu.
With Rhodes finally concluding his feud with The Bloodline, it remains to be seen which superstar will step up as his next title challenger. The reigning champion could cross paths with Kevin Owens, who turned heel after the Bad Blood Premium Live Event. At Crown Jewel, Owens and The American Nightmare's ally, Randy Orton, were involved in a massive brawl.
The Prizefighter failed to dethrone Cody Rhodes at the Bash in Berlin Premium Live Event. Can he finally win his second WWE World Title by defeating the 39-year-old in a potential match? Fans must stay tuned to find out.
