The Rhodes Dynasty: Cody's Reign Begins

Cody Rhodes won at the much-awaited 2024 men’s Royal Rumble, which took place in Tropicana Field. Then, he got a chance to fight for the world championship at WrestleMania 40. Note that Roman Reigns is currently the undisputed WWE Universal champion. Right after his victory, Rhodes wasted no time in targeting Reigns, pointing directly at him in the crowd after his triumph.

The American Nightmare started his journey to victory entering at number 15, where he demonstrated his skill by eliminating strong competitors like Austin Theory, Shinshuke Nakamura, and Gunther. After that, he came up against CM Punk in an exciting last battle. Even though Punk tried to do his Go To Sleep move, Rhodes responded by throwing him over the ropes and winning the match.

The Royal Rumble is always a top event for WWE, famous for its surprises and you cannot guess what will happen. This time, the men’s Rumble was just like that with wrestlers like Punk and Rhodes trying to win among many strong competitors.

Rhodes came back to the Rumble fight with a strong story behind him, as he returned last year as the 30th entrant after he got better from an injury to his chest muscle. He was stronger than twenty-nine other fighters in that match and beat Gunther who reached second place. This victory gave Rhodes the chance to have a match for the championship against Reigns at WrestleMania 39. Even though Solo Sikoa interrupted and caused a loss, Rhodes stayed focused on changing his story.

When Punk joined the Rumble, it was a surprise for everyone. People were not sure if he would come back to WWE, but the Chicagowrestler returned successfully. He then expressed his strong desire to win the Rumble and be in the main event at WrestleMania, which he never did before in his long career.

Confirmed participants included tough competitors such as Gunther, McIntyre, and Jey Uso, with the chance of unexpected guests increasing excitement. People also speculated about The Rock possibly coming back.

Rhodes’s consecutive wins in the Rumble make him one of WWE’s top fighters, as he becomes part of a small group with only four members to ever win like this.
