When will Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes finally happen again? Potential date for huge rematch

Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes recently engaged in a heated showdown on the recent edition of WWE SmackDown. This anticipated confrontation took place after Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso retained their Undisputed Tag Team Titles over Austin Theory and Grayson Waller. Just after the match, Roman Reigns, along with The Bloodline, made their entrance while Rhodes and Jey made their exit backstage.

The face-to-face encounter between these two superstars also generated a lot of buzz among fans, who are eagerly anticipating a potential match between Reigns and Rhodes. However, despite this tease, it is highly unlikely that a rematch between The Tribal Chief and The American Nightmare will take place anytime soon.

This belief stems from the fact that Cody Rhodes is still a RAW Superstar despite being one-half of the Undisputed Tag Team Champions.

In the event that Cody desires another shot at the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against The Tribal Chief, a Royal Rumble victory could be the best possible path. By winning his second 30-man Royal Rumble match, Cody would earn the right to challenge The Tribal Chief at next year's WrestleMania.

This opportunity would also serve as another chance for The American Nightmare to conclude his story of dethroning The Bloodline's leader as the champion. It will be interesting to see what WWE has in store for us in the near future following this significant tease of the unfinished business between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes.

What happened when Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes wrestled last time?

WrestleMania 39 was the stage where Reigns and Rhodes last competed for the Universal Championship. The match was set up after The American Nightmare won the Royal Rumble match and challenged The Tribal Chief. The bout provided fans with numerous incredible and memorable moments, featuring intense back-and-forth action and several near-falls.

However, the match concluded with interference from The Bloodline. Initially, The Usos intervened, only to be taken down by Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens. Nonetheless, Solo Sikoa suddenly appeared, delivering a devastating Samoan Spike to Rhodes' chest. This created an opening for Roman Reigns to execute a powerful Spear and secure the victory to retain his Undisputed Universal Title.

As a result of this ending, Rhodes and Reigns still have unfinished business between them. It remains to be seen whether The American Nightmare and The Tribal Chief will settle their rivalry at next year's WrestleMania, considering their intense history and the unresolved tension from their previous encounters.
