Legendary wrestling manager Jim Cornette doesn't think Roman Reigns will turn on Cody Rhodes at WWE Bad Blood. However, he believes that Randy Orton is the one who will end up betraying the latter.
The American Nightmare will join forces with The OTC, his former rival, to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in a tag team match at the upcoming Premium Live Event. They both have issues with The Bloodline, so they will deal with the villainous faction together.
Speaking on the latest edition of the Jim Cornette Experience, the WWE veteran stated that it might be too early for Roman Reigns to stab Cody Rhodes in the back. However, he could see Randy Orton turning on the Undisputed WWE Champion sooner or later, as it has been teased before.
"But it's too early. No, it's too early. That would p*ss people off in the wrong way. But it might very well happen with Orton because you might never trust a snake," said Cornette. [2:58 - 3:15]

Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes are just "two tweeners together" according to WWE veteran Dutch Mantell
On SmackDown last week, WWE aired a cinematic video of The American Nightmare's interaction with The Head of the Table at the Georgia Tech football field. Reigns gave his word to Cody that he would have his back at Bad Blood.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell shared that Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns looked like tweeners in the video.
"What we saw here was almost two tweeners together. I don't think you can move either one of them heel. If they wanted to, as a last resort they could. But I don't think they're even thinking about that." [29:35 - 29:49]
Roman Reigns has gone back on his word before, so it'll be interesting to see whether he'll live up to the one he made on SmackDown at WWE Bad Blood.
