Cody Rhodes needs to face Roman Reigns instead of The Rock at WrestleMania, says former WWE star

A former WWE star has just given his take on the situation surrounding The Rock and Cody Rhodes and what he believes should happen instead. The star in question would be QT Marshall.

Last Friday on SmackDown, The American Nightmare was set to make his decision regarding his WrestleMania opponent. It seemed as if Roman Reigns was going to be the obvious choice for Rhodes to "finish the story." However, this was not the case, as The People's Champion emerged as The Tribal Chief's potential opponent.

On Twitter, QT Marshall began a question-and-answer session as a way to support Cody Rhodes and for fans to interact with him. One fan asked how he would book Cody vs. Roman following The Rock's arrival at the scene. The AEW star could not directly answer the question but shared that despite his love for the legend, he wanted the story to be finished and their feud to happen elsewhere.

"Oh god, I’m not the best booker by any means, but this isn’t even a debate. Coming from someone who owns every pair of @ProjectRock sneakers & have told people that Rock is 1 of my [goat emoji]... read the room and let the guy finish the story. Rock/Roman can happen whenever."

Thank you Birmingham, Alabama, [sic] thank you WWE, thank you to the man himself, Cody Rhodes - and most importantly, thank you to the People.
