The Rock Attacks Cody Rhodes, Says He’ll Teach Cody About Hard Times – On the March 25 episode of WWE RAW, The Rock made an unexpected appearance during the opening segment, confronting Cody Rhodes in a dramatic showdown.
In a moment shrouded in mystery, The Great One whispered something to Cody, the details of which remained undisclosed. When questioned about it later, Cody cryptically referred to it as a promise made by The Rock that would not be forgotten.
As tensions escalated throughout the evening, Cody found himself embroiled in the main event chaos, where he and Seth Rollins intervened to thwart interference from Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa during Jey Uso’s match against Shinsuke Nakamura. Following Jey’s victory, a heated altercation erupted between Cody and Jimmy, spilling backstage.
In a shocking turn of events, The Rock ambushed Cody from behind, asserting his dominance as he dragged him into the pouring rain of the parking lot. Amidst taunting and verbal assaults, The Rock inflicted physical harm on Cody, leaving him bloodied and vulnerable.
In a chilling moment, The Rock seized a belt and used it to smear Cody’s blood, taunting Cody’s mother, Mama Rhodes, with his menacing actions. Promising to deliver further anguish, The Rock declared his intentions to present Mama Rhodes with the tainted belt at WrestleMania.
In a final ominous warning, The Final Boss vowed to teach Cody about true hardship, invoking the legacy of Cody’s late father, Dusty Rhodes, as he set the stage for their high-stakes showdown at WrestleMania 40, where he and Roman Reigns would face off against Cody and Seth Rollins.
