This man is more active in retirement than he was for like the last 5 years of his career

Assuming the Tag Match main events night 1, Roman will pass Hulk Hogan for the most WrestleMania main events ever.

Hogan has 8.

Roman currently has 7 and is seemingly main eventing both nights.

Half of them weren't really great but I'm gonna go ahead and say deserving and congratulations

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson & Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes & Seth "Freakin" Rollins​

At The Showcase of the Immortals, Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth "Freakin" Rollins will go head to head with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns in a match with huge WrestleMania implications.

The Road to WresteMania becomes increasingly intense with each passing week. Nowhere is that more evident than in the heated rivalry among Rhodes and Rollins with The Rock and Reigns.

The Rock has acknowledged Reigns as his Tribal Chief, further cementing their family bond as they set their sights on their adversaries. With the Undisputed WWE Universal Title main event against Rhodes officially set for WrestleMania Sunday, along with Rollins' World Title Match against Drew McIntyre, The Great One made a suddenly high-stakes challenge to The American Nightmare and The Visionary for The Show of Shows.

In response to an initial challenge by Rhodes for a one-on-one matchup, The Rock issued a counter-proposal for Rhodes and Rollins to battle him and Reigns in a tag team match on WrestleMania Saturday. If Rhodes and Rollins emerge victorious, The Bloodline will be barred from ringside for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship Match. If The Head of the Table and The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment are to win, however, the main event title match the following night will become "Bloodline Rules," meaning anything goes where the nefarious faction is concerned. The Rock threatened that if Rhodes and Rollins do not answer the challenge, the story would tragically end.

More unified than ever and convinced the future of WWE depends on them putting The Bloodline in check, Rhodes and Rollins journeyed to SmackDown to accept the challenge.

Bloodline banned or "Bloodline Rules" for Reigns vs. Rhodes? Find out on Saturday, April 6, at 7 ET/4 PT, streaming LIVE on Peacock in the United States and WWE Network everywhere else.​

With the exception of 31, pretty much all of them before the heel turn were rough

 

[Dale]

Honestly don't know if I want Bloodline Rules or Bloodline banned, leaning towards the latter for the pure amount of attitude era fuckhousery we could get

 

[Chris]

I said months ago I wanted this match to have everyone involved and let's be real no one but Seth is taking the pin in the tag anyway

 

[Cwalker]

I’m leaning towards Bloodline Rules cause I want them to recreate last year’s spot where Solo hits Cody with the Spike then Roman Spears him.

Only this time, Cody kicks out

See I kinda thought Rock was gonna take the fall, which then would play into the whole Roman/Rock feud and him losing the title because of Rock.

Seth losing both matches at Mania would be quite the choice though.

 

[Cwalker]

Before these stipulations were added, I actually thought Roman would’ve taken the fall in the tag match.

That way, he fails The Rock. Rock starts looking at him funny, Heyman starts questioning him.

It all would lead to the Bloodline turning on Roman and their match at WM41

 

[Dale]

Aint no way Roman is getting pinned, that's the only who would I almost guarantee doesn't get pinned.

A few of Hogans were poor too.

my thought process was that rock gets the win on n1 to get bloodline rules(can even pin cody after fuckery) and then n2 we get all the bloodline and all the cody pals come out and do their thing and cody wins clean then on smackdown we get the rock saying he lined everything up for roman to get the easy win and he still failed and kicks roman out of the bloodline for roman to take like 6 months off before returning as a babyface.
