Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins came through the crowd to confront The Rock & Roman Reigns on the March 8th episode of WWE SmackDown.
Speaking to Jimmy Traina on the “SI Media Podcast,” the American Nightmare was asked if there was a moment that stood out to him in the build-up to their WrestleMania XL match.
Rhodes said, “There was a moment, in the ring, live, happening in real time where Seth and I came down through the people to confront the Tribal Chief and Final Boss. I got a big kick out of seeing them see us. I’ve given a lot of respect to The Rock, and will certainly continue to do so, but I think he didn’t know who I was as a player. I think in the moment, he saw, ‘Geez, they’re all doing the WOAH. He’s signing autographs on the way down here.’ It’s a different type of individual than perhaps he maybe saw a picture online or one clip. We base so much off GIFs and social media. That moment, right before I slapped him, and I brought that slap, that moment was a nice moment amongst myself and Seth and our place in all this.”
