The Rock & Roman Reigns Set For Huge Talk Show Appearance
The Rock and Roman Reigns are teaming up at WrestleMania 40, but first they have an appearance on a major talk show.
At WrestleMania 40, the Night 1 main event on Saturday, April 6th will see Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns team up against the Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes and the World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins.
It’s a match with huge stakes because if The Bloodline team of Rock & Reigns win then that means the Roman Reigns-Cody Rhodes match at WrestleMania 40 Sunday will be Bloodline Rules meaning there could be plenty of interference from people not in the match. However, if Cody & Seth win then the Reigns-Rhodes match will be free of The Bloodline according to The Rock, who may or not be sincere in saying that.
On the final episode of WWE Raw before WrestleMania 40 on April 1st in Brooklyn, The Bloodline tag team of The Rock & Roman Reigns will be on the show. Since Raw is the show that Rhodes & Rollins appear on then that likely means they will be there too, so it could be a massive showdown.
That won’t be all for Rock & Reigns, who have been announced as guests on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, April 3rd. It was announced in a video posted on the show’s social media accounts where Fallon and members of The Roots take turns holding the WWE Golden Title.

The Rock Bloodies Cody Rhodes On WWE Raw
It was a very eventful edition of WWE Monday Night Raw in Chicago when The Rock showed up unannounced to confront Cody Rhodes in the ring. The Rock walked up to Rhodes, said something to him that nobody could hair and simply walked away.
That wasn’t all for Rock on Raw because after the main event match that saw Jey Uso beat Shinsuke Nakamura, The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso attacked. The two brothers were fighting Cody when “The Final Boss” (Rock’s nickname for himself in this storyline) showed up for a cheap attack from behind. The Rock beat up Cody in the backstage area before he sent him outside in a rainy Chicago. It was a dominant beating by The Rock, which saw Cody appear with a bloody forehead after Rock sent Cody into Cody’s tour bus repeatedly.
In addition to that, The Rock also had a weight belt that said “Mama Rhodes” on it and he wiped Cody’s blood on the weight belt to taunt Cody’s mother Michelle watching at home. In the mind of The Final Boss, it was a preview of what’s to come at WrestleMania 40, which is less than two weeks away.
