The Rock has seemingly revealed his planned match for WWE WrestleMania 40 on night one of the event in Philadelphia, PA.

During tonight’s March 1 episode of SmackDown, The Rock responded to Cody Rhodes’ challenge to singles match, which Rhodes had laid out at Elimination Chamber.
The Rock rejected that match, but had a counter-offer which is almost certainly the actual plan – The Rock revealed that he and Roman Reigns were challenging Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins for a tag team match WrestleMania 40.
The Rock said he would team with Roman Reigns and challenged Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins to the ‘biggest tag team match in history’ at WrestleMania 40 on night one.
If Rhodes and Rollins can beat The Rock and Roman Reigns on night one of WrestleMania, then the Bloodline is banned from the building for Cody’s Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match against Roman on night two.

But if Rock and Roman win the tag match, the night two title match between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns becomes ‘Bloodline Rules’.
The Rock said this means “anything goes” – throwing out suggestions that he could join commentary, perhaps Paul Heyman will introduce a ‘foreign object’, and maybe Solo Sikoa will sing the national anthem.
At the close of the promo, as The Rock went to deliver his signature “if you smell…” line he was interrupted by Roman Reigns putting his hand on the microphone and holding out his hand for a mic.

Roman told Rock that he needed him to do just one thing – acknowledge him.
Dwayne Johnson would go on to tell Reigns that he acknowledged him as his tribal chief as the Bloodline ended the segment united.
