The Rock and Rhodes feuded leading up to WrestleMania XL, with The Rock and Roman Reigns emerging victorious against Rhodes and Seth Rollins. However, The Rock has since revealed that he and the WWE Champion have mended fences and that the former is now friends with Rhodes. He also mentioned that their mothers were also friends. However, The Final Boss had a conversation with Rhodes on the latest episode of SmackDown and asked the latter for his "soul" and that he become The Final Boss' WWE Champion, with fans divided on what this actually implies. Former WWE Superstar James Ellsworth also presented his take on the matter.

Cody Rhodes has been the Undisputed WWE Champion for almost a year. He won the title on Night 2 of WrestleMania XL, dethroning Reigns in a Bloodline Rules Match.
Rhodes is potentially set to face the winner of the men's Elimination Chamber match in Toronto. However, things could change soon with The Final Boss in the fray.
