Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has commented on the possibility of a match against The Rock in the future.
The feud between Rock and Rhodes actually became more prominent than that between Rhodes and Roman Reigns heading into WrestleMania 40.
However, instead of a singles match, it was for the tag match where Rhodes teamed with Seth Rollins against Rock and Reigns.
The Rock appeared on the Raw after WrestleMania, and seemed to announced that he’s going to be absent from WWE again for a while, but will be returning for a match against Rhodes when he’s back.
In an appearance on Good Morning Britain, Cody Rhodes addressed the possibility of that match, saying:
“I wanna say yes. I wanna say yes. I think it’ll really come down to, can I be a good champion, or a great champion. Roman Reigns was a great champion.
“And will that be enough to entice The Rock? Because that’s what’s happened here. Rock will tell you he made wrestling cool again. Rock made wrestling cool maybe in the first place, but this run it’s a whole new generation, a whole new locker room – Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, myself, Rhea Ripley, all these people.
“I think the more we keep this, the better we do, the more chances it lures Rock back in the fray.”

The winner of AJ Styles vs LA Knight on tonight’s SmackDown will challenge Rhodes for the title at Backlash in France on May 4.
