Here is what Cody Rhodes has to say about the rumors circulating WrestleMania 41.
Earlier this year at WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes defeated Roman Reigns to finish his story and win the WWE Championship. Rhodes found himself in a heated story against Reigns and The Rock since his Royal Rumble 2024 victory.
However, now ahead of ‘Mania 41, things seem to be different. While Rhodes is busy in a feud against Gunther and Kevin Owens, Reigns is busy with his family business. At Bad Blood, fans saw The Rock return and face the new alliance of Reigns and Rhodes.
However, that story is yet to be touched, as the promotion now continues to focus on The Bloodline saga involving Reigns, Jey Uso, Solo Sikoa, and others. During his recent interview with The Schmo, Rhodes addressed the rumors circulating WrestleMania 41.
That’s the question every year with WrestleMania because the goal is always to top the year before. WrestleMania is like our Super Bowl—it’s the beginning and the end of WWE’s calendar year. It’s the start, the reset, everything. With WrestleMania 40, we finished the story, so now going into WrestleMania 41, we have to raise the bar. Here’s what I’ll say without giving too much away: I think what happens at WrestleMania 41 won’t align with a lot of the rumors out there. It’ll be more unexpected and, without a doubt, it will top WrestleMania 40.”

Promising to surpass last year’s ‘Mania in Philadelphia, The American Nightmare claimed that the upcoming PLE in Las Vegas will be nothing like the rumors. The rumors currently suggest Roman Reigns facing The Brahma Bull, as The Rock recently teased a WrestleMania match.
With still several months left for ‘The Grandest Stage of them all’, fans wonder what the promotion has in plans next year.
In November, Cody Rhodes once again promised that what’s to come at WrestleMania 41 would surprise everyone.
Current Champion Wants To Face Cody Rhodes At WrestleMania
In his recent appearance on Beef Vegan Presents on Rock 102.1 KFMA, United States Champion LA Knight opened up on his desires to face Champions Gunther or Cody Rhodes at the upcoming WrestleMania.
Will I even be the United States Champion by then? It could be, if I was gonna fantasy book, I would probably do a title vs. title, me versus Cody, or maybe even me versus Gunther. I’m looking for the champions. I want the world championship, I want the WWE Championship, and so for me, again, it’s always that progression. Let’s continue moving up, let’s continue moving forward.
I think we could do some special things, whether it was Cena, whether it was with Gunther, or whether it was with Cody. Then again, the crazy thing about this career, especially since being in WWE, it’s just that there are things that I haven’t even thought about or didn’t even know existed as options for me, that have presented themselves. You never know, especially between now and April, anything could happen.”
