Cody Rhodes Shoots On Triple H Changing WWE WrestleMania 40's Main Event

We at Real Rasslin have come to learn.

Cody Rhodes has revealed that he spoke with ex-WCW legend Dimond Dallas Page (DDP) about WWE's initial decision to replace him with The Rock for WrestleMania 40's main event. Diamond Dallas Page told him: "This will be the best thing that has happened to you", which confused Cody Rhodes at first.

Diamond Dallas Page was telling him to keep the faith and definitely keep believing in himself.

Cody Rhodes told Ariel Helwani on 'The MMA Hour' that it was strange to see WWE pivot so close to crunch time. However, he honestly believes Triple H saw the feedback from fans and decided to twist again. Suddenly, Cody Rhodes was back on for Philly vs. Roman Reigns.

During the interview, WWE's top babyface refused to reveal exactly what The Rock said to him when it looked like Cody Rhodes might step to the side and let him wrestle the headliner vs. Roman Reigns instead. He told Ariel Helwani that Rocky himself had to tell that story.

Interesting.

Things have worked out in the end, at least. Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes is roundly expected to finally "finish the story" at WrestleMania by beating Roman Reigns and capturing the Undisputed WWE Universal Title. Hunter could have a riot on his hands if not!
