5 dream matches for The Rock outside WWE we may never get to see

#3 The Rock vs. Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes in AEW

A history-making match between The Rock and Cody Rhodes would come with an enormous amount of emotion. When it comes to wrestling legacies, there's none better than the Anoa'i Family and the Rhodes family. Both families have had a huge impact on the industry for decades.

Now that Cody Rhodes has taken a big leap and essentially become a big fish in the AEW pond, his stock has risen massively since his WWE days. He's come into his own with more freedom, and has only gotten better and better.

Rhythm, cadence, tone, intent, passion, execution. Great promo, brother. You 🎤 dropped that MF. @CodyRhodes

Now, to put him in a match with The Rock, we're guaranteeing ourselves an instant classic. Cody is in his prime at 36-year years old and The Rock is coming to the end of his career, but can still deliver. Generation vs. Genaration. Era vs. Era. Anoa'i vs. Rhodes. Also, imagine the promo's. I'm already getting goosebumps thinking about it.

Cody, of course, is an executive and full-time wrestler in AEW, so it is one of the dream matches we may never get to see.

One of my favorite promos of all time. The Cody Rhodes promo from #AEWDynamite in Charlotte North Carolina Nov 6th 2019 was so great. Spitting nothing but fire the whole time🔥 pic.twitter.com/9SbJzsiJDz
