AEW Star Says WWE WrestleMania 40 Is Important For The Future Of Wrestling

WWE/AEW

AEW’ coach Mark Henry has commented on the build to WrestleMania 40, believing that the WWE show will be important for the future of wrestling.

A huge main event has been confirmed for the April 6-7 event, with Cody Rhodes set to challenge for Roman Reigns WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.

Also at WrestleMania, Roman Reigns will team up with The Rock to face off against Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Mark Henry discussed the importance of the upcoming bout.

Noting that he’s supporting Cody Rhodes, Henry said:

“For the future of wrestling, for the future of Cody Rhodes, it’s big. There’s a lot on the table. Roman Reigns is Teflon, and you know what I’ve been seeing online a lot lately? There are a collection of people that want to see Roman take the title through and break the longest reign for holding the title.

“I only feel like that’s valuable if you’re defending it. I feel like that’s out the window. I don’t have a problem whatsoever with Cody winning at WrestleMania and then we get to see a new reign get started, so let’s go.

“I’m a Cody Crybaby, I’m all in.”

A new match has been pitched for WrestleMania 40, which you can read more about right here.
