• Before tonight’s WrestleMania 40 Kickoff media event, The Rock appeared on The Pat McAfee show and said the following about his match against Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns:
“At the end of the day, I know it, you know it, we know it, Roman knows it, Cody knows it, his fans know it, that at the end of the day, The Rock vs. Roman Reigns is THE, capital T, capital H, capital E, biggest main event in the history of WrestleMania, The Rock & Roman Reigns & I’ll end it there, they all know it.”
Rock also addressed the heat he has been getting on Social Media after last week’s SmackDown:
“Cody (Rhodes), I love his passionate fans. Then, there’s the other passionate fans of Cody. They’re called, what’s that? Oh Cody Crybabies. These are grown a$$ men, ‘Oh Cody’s got to finish his story. Finish his story right now!’
It’s like, wait a second, ‘Hey dad, you wanna go outside and play catch? NO! Cody’s losing and I’m upset.’ The wife comes in, ‘Hey honey, do you wanna have $ex? Not now, he’s got to finish his story!’
At the end of the day, you got the Cody Crybabies, the Cody fans and Cody himself, so there’s a clear distinction between the three.
The Rock says this, those Cody crybabies, the ones for every 10 tweets, they’re shoving a Chicken McNugget in their mouth, every 20 tweets, they’re shoving 2 McNuggets up their a$$. All you gotta do is sit back, know your role, shut your mouth & enjoy the ride that The Rock is gonna take your candy a$$es on. So hashtag that. Hashtag shut your b*tch a$$es up. Hashtag Cody Crybabies. Yeah!”
Speaking of Cody, he has posted the following on his Instagram story:
“I’ve made my decision.”
