WrestleMania 40 is set to be a monumental event in the world of professional wrestling, with fans buzzing about the involvement of three major stars: The Rock, Roman Reigns, and Cody Rhodes. While there has been some controversy surrounding the lineup, it seems clear that The Rock is embracing his role as a heel in this WWE run.
At the WrestleMania Kickoff press conference, the most viral moment occurred when The Rock, feeling disrespected, slapped Cody Rhodes just days after they had seemingly made amends on SmackDown. This unexpected turn of events shifted the focus away from the reported plan of The Rock facing Reigns and instead put the spotlight on Rhodes' feud with The Rock, stemming from The Rock's desire to steal Rhodes' WrestleMania main event spot.
