10 Wrestlers WWE Should Build To Dethrone Roman Reigns
2. Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes just made his much-anticipated return to WWE, where he beat Seth Rollins at Wrestlemania. Rhodes is on a multi-year deal on favourable and is one of the biggest stars in the world of professional wrestling. His time in AEW, as one of the founding members no less, was unforgettable and truly pushed him to the top. Even with his not so thrilling last few months in AEW, his impact on the company and the wrestling world is undeniable.
Cody has already planted the first seeds in this story when he gave what was quite possibly the best promo of his career to open the Monday Night RAW after Wrestlemania. Now centre the story on everything Cody said during this promo. Cody is back, being fueled by the dream of his late, great father Dusty Rhodes, and is chasing the World Title.
Cody has proven time and again that he is capable of putting together great feuds and matches when given the reigns (pun intended) to make it happen. Roman Reigns versus Cody Rhodes in the main event of Wrestlemania 39 could potentially be the biggest showdown in all of wrestling come 2023. Given how good each man is, and how much investment this story would have if properly told, this could truly become one of the best Wrestlemania moments of all time. Cody Rhodes pins Roman Reigns on the grandest stage to become World Champion, and has tears in his eyes as he pays tribute to his father while holding the World Title.
