[@WilliamsWrestlin]

You know what, i like Mark's idea at the end. I'm seeing Dwayne gravitate his personality towards his character Black Adam. Remember, WWE is no different than regular acting. So what i can see is that the Rock is playing Black Adam in WWE, giving himself the spotlight at WM 40 to act as if he's the true and powerful tribal chief (since he is actually in a higher corporate position). Only to change his mind right before the bell rings and Cody Rhodes comes out and Rock becomes special guest referee on the spot. Then Cody Rhodes wins the championship while The Rock and Reigns have the stare down of the century, thus starting their year long feud, bringing everyone in their family throughout the year.

The Title that Seth has is a totally new title, if nothing else it is the World Heavyweight Tittle. The WWF title which Bruno held was the black belt with the W by the time Roman got it and IT got merged with the Universal Title to make that gold strap. Either way, the title that Roman has is the one with the lineage to Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Stone Cold, etc.

Bully’s scenario to fix this had some good ideas but it doesn’t justify why The Rock needed this now. The Rock may be 50 but he has all the money and resources to get in great shape for NEXT years Wrestlemania. Not to mention that we all know he’s practically the most powerful man in the company under Ari Emmanuel and can have this match whenever. Even if The Rock does acknowledge Cody Rhodes, that main event is still going to bomb regardless, and will be met with a similar level of rejection that the main event of Wrestlemania 34 received.

It would definitely play into the narrative of what he said, when Cody said he wanted to take everything from Roman.
