With CM Punk doing his best to punch his ticket to WrestleMania 41, many are speculating about an Undisputed WWE Title match between him and Cody Rhodes. If that does indeed happen, it will be interesting to see who the fans rally behind, considering both the names are babyfaces.
Speaking about the topic on Sportskeeda's UnSKripted, Bill Apter stated that the two stars facing each other would probably lead to Cody Rhodes being booed, forcing him to turn heel.

"If it just turns out to be Punk and Cody (at WrestleMania) which I don't think it will be. I think, I don't think it's gonna be a mixed reaction. I think Punk is gonna be the babyface in that thing. That crowd, that WWE universe crowd cannot at this point get enough of CM Punk. He can do and say whatever he wants, they love him." [21:29 onwards]

A fan of pro wrestling since childhood, Shubhajit decided to start creating content on the sport out of passion. Before covering a piece of news or rumor, he conducts thorough research, ensuring information in his work is reliable and completely accurate.
Although Shubhajit admires numerous pro wrestlers, his current favorite is WWE superstar Drew McIntyre. He is fond of The Scottish Warrior’s character work and innovative quips.
If there is one storyline he can work on in WWE, Shubhajit would book Roman Reigns’ future with The Bloodline following WrestleMania XL, where he lost to Cody Rhodes. He would have Reigns’ stablemates excommunicate him, laying the foundation for a gimmick change for the former. After Reigns’ exit from the faction, Shubhajit would portray him as an anti-hero trying hard to claw his way back up to the top.
