The Rock sends a message to Cody Rhodes ahead of WWE SmackDown
The Rock has revealed why he has an issue with Cody Rhodes ahead of his appearance on tonight's edition of SmackDown.
The 51-year-old slapped the Men's Royal Rumble winner in the face during the WrestleMania XL Kickoff press conference last month. Today, The Great One said that he wasn't angry with Rhodes for changing his mind, he was upset with how the WWE RAW star went about it.
"Then sometime from that moment on until Las Vegas, you changed your mind. You know what? That's no problem. You can change your mind, you have that right, and The Rock accepts that. Everybody has a right to change their mind. The Rock accepts it, you changed your mind. But, here's what The Rock doesn't accept. It's how you did it!" he said. [10:49-11:34]
