WWE Star Will Have “Unbelievable Saga” With Cody Rhodes

The challenges are going to keep on coming for Cody Rhodes.

Despite vanquishing Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes has remained at war with The Bloodline.

While he’s also been forced to battle Kevin Owens, Rhodes’ biggest obstacles have arrived in the form of Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu. And although Rhodes appears to have the measure of Sikoa, Fatu and the Undisputed WWE Champion are yet to meet one-on-one. But there’s at least one former star out there who can’t wait to see it.

During an interview with Monopoly Events’ Jamal Niaz at For The Love of Wrestling 2025, Mark Henry was asked who he would have liked to have faced in the ring. The veteran was quick to name Cody Rhodes, before tipping him to have a lengthy rivalry with Jacob Fatu.

“Now, currently, MJF comes to mind. Cody [Rhodes] is one that I’ve been in the ring with, but Cody evolved. I would love to get this current version of Cody and just stretch him all over America and around the world. He needs to be put in jeopardy, and there’s some guys that can do it.

I think Jacob Fatu is one of those. I think Jacob is gonna have an unbelievable saga with him. [Niaz names Bron Breakker]. Bron Breakker, too. He’s another one that’s very athletic, very good and explosive. Oba Femi is somebody I like a lot, I see him doing really big things. They got some young talent that’s pretty damn impressive.

All three of them, I could see them in the next five to eight years being in the main event [of WrestleMania],”

The Rock Puts Cody Rhodes Under Pressure

Before he has to worry about Jacob Fatu, Bron Breakker, or Oba Femi, Cody Rhodes has been given a stunning proposition by The Rock.

During an appearance on SmackDown, Rock told the American Nightmare that he wants him to be “his” World Champion, harking back to his own role as Vince McMahon’s Corporate Champion in 1998.

However, the Great One denied he wanted Rhodes’ championship for himself, telling his rival he wanted his soul.

In a strange admission, The Rock later claimed his rivalry with Cody Rhodes doesn’t need to end with a match.
