The incident unfolded after Rhodes, emerging victorious by eliminating CM Punk in the men's Royal Rumble match, announced his decision to challenge Roman Reigns for the coveted main event at WrestleMania. However, the wrestling landscape took an unexpected twist when WWE authorities intervened, replacing Rhodes with the iconic Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

This unforeseen change didn't sit well with the WWE universe, as fans expressed their displeasure at the alteration of the highly anticipated match. The tension reached its peak at the WrestleMania XL press conference in Las Vegas, where Roman Reigns berated Cody Rhodes and declared his intention to face The Rock in the main event.
Why did The Rock slap Cody Rhodes?
The Rock, in a surprising turn of character, embraced his heel persona, mocking the "Cody crybabies" and delving into the intricacies of the Bloodline family tree. Cody Rhodes, not one to back down, confronted both Reigns and The Rock, delivering a scathing remark about their ancestors and bloodlines.
The emotional exchange led to an unexpected slap from The Rock to the American Nightmare, triggering a chaotic brawl between the three wrestling giants. However, Triple H later confirmed that the WrestleMania XL main event would feature Cody Rhodes facing Roman Reigns. The Rock's abrupt heel turn added an intriguing layer to the feud, with questions arising about how WWE would navigate the storyline leading up to the grand event.
As the wrestling world eagerly awaits WrestleMania XL, the clash between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns promises to be a riveting spectacle, fueled by the unexpected involvement and newfound antagonistic persona of The Rock. The landscape of WWE has been reshaped, leaving fans on the edge of their seats, anticipating the unfolding drama in the lead-up to the historic main event.
