Cody Rhodes and the WWE Universe started a movement, that began with a groundswell, and later carved it into a revolution. Despite multiple obstacles stacked in his path, The American Nightmare was determined to create history and dethrone Roman Reigns after being backed up by millions of WWE fans across the globe.
As a result, Cody Rhodes made history at WrestleMania 40, defeating The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion, ending a historic four-year title run in the process and “Finished his Story’. However, it would not have been possible if it was not for his special connection with the fans who brushed away a much big megastar in his favor on the road to WrestleMania.
