Cody Rhodes says he has “probably two unfinished stories” with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
While speaking to Ariel Helwani, WWE Champion Cody Rhodes commented on the status of his feud with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson…
“Dwayne Johnson has become a bit of a fixture in my career and my life, not just for his flag in the sand moment that was WrestleMania, and then the emergence of probably one of the better characters that we’ve only seen a little bit of it being the Final Boss.
I don’t want to give it an absolute and say that we do have to settle that, but I think it’s an unfinished story. There’s probably two unfinished stories that are out there, and they don’t always get finished. You know, wrestling is— there’s a lot of fantasy booking, there’s a lot of ways, but there’s, there’s a lot that goes into it.
There’s a version of this where finishing that story is me trying to be as successful as I possibly can be, follow a bit of, if not a lot of, his lead, break into TV in Hollywood and do something that he thought only he could do, and do that to honor him.
Then there’s a version of it that’s probably more appealing to a wrestling fan where the final boss shows back up and there is more— there’s more on the rose than a non-ending.”
