Top five potential opponents for Cody Rhodes after his win at WWE WrestleMania 40

The American Nightmare won the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 40

After what happened at the main event of WrestleMania, most people are confused about how Cody Rhodes’ future will look from now on. The future here means his possible challenges after winning the Undisputed Title and his opponents, against whom he will defend his prestigious title.

While he is advertised for this week’s Smackdown, here is a list of potential opponents he could have who would try to shatter his dreams and turn them into nightmares in no time.

AJ Styles

After his heel turn, AJ Styles is all over the minds of people who love professional wrestling, as they want him to have a good single run just like what he had in 2016. Though he lost against LA Knight in his WrestleMania match, people could potentially look at him as the first challenger to Cody Rhodes. After his loss, AJ looks like a hungry lion who wants something big to happen with him, and a feud against Cody is what he will need to gain momentum again.

The Rock

Even though both Rock and Cody shook their hands during this week’s Monday Night Raw, it looks like something is going on in Final Boss’s mind. While the Rock said, ‘Don’t you break my heart ever again’ on the Raw, it seems like the Rock will come back and eventually challenge Cody for the Universal Title so that he can be assured that Cody is the right one to be the face of the company after dethroning his cousin Roman Reigns.
