WWE RAW star Cody Rhodes won the Men's Royal Rumble match once again and is scheduled for a face-to-face with Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns tonight on SmackDown.

WWE veteran believes promotion is losing confidence in Cody Rhodes
Former WWE writer Vince Russo claimed that the company could be losing confidence in Cody Rhodes earlier this month.
Speaking on Sportskeeda's Writing with Russo show, the wrestling veteran claimed that Rhodes has lost a bit of momentum. Russo suggested that Roman Reigns and The Rock battle before The Tribal Chief faces Rhodes again. He added that Roman Reigns would likely defeat The Brahma Bull and that he senses there is a lack of confidence from the company in Cody Rhodes at the moment.
"I don't think they are feeling Cody like they wanna feel Cody. I am telling you bro I think there is a little, there is just a little lack of confidence in Cody being the guy. I feel that, I do feel that's the game plan bro. Roman's gonna go over the Rock, and then Cody is gonna win, you know that's gonna help. I just don't feel the confidence is there right now. " [From 02:13 onwards]
