"At the end of the day, you've got the Cody crybabies, you've got the Cody fans, and you've got Cody himself. And there's a clear distinction between the three. But, The Rock says this those Cody crybabies who ever 10 tweets they're shoving a chicken McNugget in their mouth, for every 20 tweets they're shoving two McNuggets up their a**, The Rock says this: all you've gotta do is sit back, shut your mouth, and enjoy the ride The Rock is gonn take your candy a**es on.

Bill Apter discussed the feud between Roman Reigns and The Rock and Cody Rhodes' involvement

Bill Apter believes WWE could be planning another major twist between The Rock and Roman Reigns.

Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's UnSKripted, Apter stated that Cody Rhodes could be involved in The Rock's storyline with Reigns in some capacity. He said:

"If it's the Rock and Roman, Cody [Rhodes] is gonna be there. There is gonna be something with Cody there, whether he is doing commentary, there is gonna be something going on. What if the powers that be say whoever wins tonight, Cody gets them at Monday Night RAW. The strongest Monday Night RAW every year is the one after WrestleMania. The TV world, streaming, non-streaming, everything will explode. RAW will never see a rating like this if they haven't seen ever."

It remains to be seen what plans WWE has in store for the WrestleMania XL press conference.
