8 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE Raw After WrestleMania 40 (8 April - Results & Review)

Ups…

8. A Wrestling MacGuffin

WWE Raw The Rock Cody Rhodes

What’s in the box? What’s in the box?

Or in this case, what’s in Cody Rhodes’ hand?

During the electric encounter between The Rock and Cody Rhodes, Rock seemingly couldn’t intimidate the new World Champion… until he handed something to Cody. Upon giving it to Rhodes, he ominously told him that Cody didn’t even need to open his hand to know what it was, then looked at him and growled, “Don’t ever break my heart again.”

Sooooo… what was it? Cody was visually shook into silence as he put the MacGuffin in his pocket, so fans will have to wait to find out what exactly was so important that it silenced Rhodes like that.

While not a whodunnit mystery that will grip fans for months on end, it’s a fun little thing playing out in the background while Rock disappears for a bit. It will be interesting to see how it’s brought back to the foreground and what role it plays in the story.
