WWE will be forging ahead with a monster tag team match pitting Roman Reigns and The Rock against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania, per a big budget teaser trailer they launched live on YouTube right before the SuperBowl kicked off.
The grandiose teaser trailer featured the WWE Champion and 'The Great One' going face to face with the 'American Nightmare' and the World Heavyweight Champion against a futuristic landscape bathed in the green of Philadelphia and the wider WrestleMania aesthetic. "The World Is On Notice" flashed up on screen as scenes flitted between individual shots of the four and further glimpses of Reigns and Rhodes in a singular face-off, followed by a graphic reminding viewers that WrestleMania was a two-night event.

WWE making real the visual of the four men back together for the first time since the explosive WrestleMania XL press conference in Las Vegas on February 8th seems to confirm reporting initially provided by Wrestling Observer's Bryan Alvarez after the fact that the tag match will take place on Night One with Cody's long-awaited chance to finish his story occurring on Night Two.
No word on when all four will next share the ring between now and the 'Show Of Shows', but the babyfaces may do so as early as tonight's Raw. The two are both assigned to the red brand, and are likely to be present as opposed to their part-time opponents.
