WWE RAW: WWE RAW Results: Thrilling action ensues as roads lead to WM

The "American Nightmare," Cody Rhodes, made his entrance, entered the ring, and picked up the microphone to start the show. He discusses his hopes for his match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, but he is unable to go into detail due to his distraction—the Rock, of course. He summarises Rock's entire promo and makes clear that he declined the challenge for a singles bout and instead issued a brand new one that involves Seth Rollins. As the World Heavyweight Champion walks in, Cody discusses their partnership. He is not in favour of having his back and completely understands if he wants to concentrate on Drew McIntyre.

After giving it some thought, Seth says he'll take care of Drew but he respects Cody for giving him the benefit of the doubt. Rollins also disclosed that he is back and ready the go, having obtained 100% medical clearance, and that he will face the Bloodline at SmackDown. After giving it some thought, Rhodes believes he has a message for the Rock as well.
