Rock interrupted Rhodes' opening promo on Raw and whispered, "Tonight, I'm gonna make you bleed" before leaving. At the end of the evening, Rock attacked Rhodes, kicking him out of the building and into the rain. Rock continued the beatdown, causing Rhodes to bleed and smearing Rhodes' blood on his weight belt.
Reigns will team with The Rock at night one of WrestleMania 40 to face Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins. At night two, Reigns will defend the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Rhodes.
