A major match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes is reportedly planned for WWE WrestleMania 41.
The possibility has been buzzed about in recent weeks, and new reports offer more details about the situation.
In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer wrote that the recent reports about John Cena being Cody Rhodes’ planned opponent were accurate as things currently stood. Meltzer noted that the idea of Cena trying to break the world title reign had been a “working idea” for months. The report highlights how The Rock’s involvement with the show is not etched in stone, as he will likely do whatever he wants to do. Meltzer reiterated that The Rock wrestling at WWE WrestleMania 41 is not a sure thing.

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful (via Fightful Select) also reported that a match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes was the working plan for WrestleMania. Per Sapp, this was said to be the plan as far back as mid-November after it was noted that The Rock’s schedule was unclear. As previously reported, Th Rock was not factored into the plans for WrestleMania 41. However, this is subject to change.
Furthermore, Sapp wrote that there were WrestleMania plans for “a solid portion” of the roster, and some alternate possibilities as well.
