The Rock And Roman Reigns Beat Cody Rhodes And Seth Rollins In The Main Event Of Night 1 At Wrestlemania 40

The main event of Night 2 at WrestleMania 40 will take place under Bloodline rules. That got determined based on the result of Night 1’s main event, which saw The Rock and Roman Reigns beat Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins in a tag team match.

The match started with a length standoff between Rollins, Rhodes, Reigns, and The Rock. Rollins and Reigns kicked things off with the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion getting the early advantage. Rhodes and Reigns wrestled to a stalemate before Rollins tagged back in and Reigns tagged in Rock.

Rock jumped in and tossed Rollins before Rollins toyed with Rock. Rollins tossed Rock to the corner, but Rock popped out and clotheslined Rollins. He then called out Rhodes to climb into the ring.

Eventually the action spilled to the outside, with Reigns and Rhodes fighting up the ramp and Rock and Rollins brawling into the stands. Rhodes tossed Reigns into the LED board at the top of the ramp, while Rock beat Rollins with a trash can.

Rhodes suplexed Reigns on the top of the ramp and Rock took a drink and spit in Rollins face. Rollins and Rock eventually made their way back to ringside, while Reigns slammed Rhodes’ head into the barricade along the entrance way. Reigns saw Rollins on the apron and took his knee out. Back in the ring, Reigns and Rock continued to attack Rollins’ knee. As Rollins began to find any footing, Rock attacked him on the outside and Reigns threw him into the stairs.

Reigns went for the Superman Punch, which Rollins reversed into a neckbreaker. Reigns tagged in Rock and punched him below the belt. Rollins finally made it back to his corner and Rock tagged in Reigns. Rhodes and Reigns went at it in the ring, with Rhodes hitting a Cody Cutter for two. Rhodes went for the Disaster Kick, but got caught with a Superman Punch. At this point, Reigns saw his nose was bleeding and started to pump himself up before attempting a spear — Rhodes countered it, though, and got a two count.

Rhodes went for a Cody Cutter and Rollins tagged himself in, then climbed to the top rope and hit a frog splash for two. Rhodes tagged in, Rollins hit the Curb Stomp, Rhodes hit the Cross Rhodes, and while it looked like Reigns might have been in trouble, Rock pulled the referee out of the ring.
