What is Cody Rhodes' relationship with his former rival Roman Reigns?
Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns were each other's biggest rivals not a long time ago. Their rivalry finally ended at WrestleMania XL, where The American Nightmare became the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion after defeating The Original Tribal Chief. Cody recently opened up about his relationship with The Head of the Table while speaking on The Flagrant Podcast:
"We just don’t have any interaction. I’ve wrestled this guy at two WrestleManias. Two conversations. One, telling him that I was coming on board and I was looking forward to it." [H/T CageSideSeats]
Roman Reigns made his big return to the Stamford-based company at SummerSlam 2024 following a months-long hiatus. He interfered in the Undisputed WWE Championship match between Rhodes and Solo Sikoa and helped The American Nightmare retain his title. Many fans believe that Reigns and Rhodes are bound to resume their rivalry in the distant future.
