Cody Rhodes has been on a hot streak since his return to the WWE, and his popularity shows no signs of slowing down. His impressive performance at WrestleMania 38 has cemented his status as one of the top stars in the organization. Now, he’s set to face off against Roman Reigns for the coveted Undisputed Universal Title at WrestleMania 39, and it seems The Undertaker believes Rhodes has what it takes to dethrone the Tribal Chief.
Rhodes has been on a roll since entering the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event, where he won the whole thing as the last entrant. He then chose Roman Reigns as his opponent for WrestleMania 39, setting the stage for a highly anticipated match. The tension was heightened further when Rhodes engaged in a war of words with Paul Heyman, emphasizing the intensity of their upcoming feud.

In a recent promo battle with Roman Reigns, Rhodes asserted his confidence ahead of the match, further fueling the excitement surrounding their championship bout. WWE legend The Undertaker recently spoke to Ariel Helwani on BT Sport, stating that he believes Cody Rhodes is the right person to dethrone Roman Reigns. When asked about who he thinks could pull off the upset, The Undertaker said, “At this point, it’s gotta be the right person and one, it’s gotta be somebody that you trust and you know is not gonna flake off and do something because there’s a lot of time and money invested in this whole thing… I think Cody [Rhodes] with the momentum that he had, I think that would be the logical guy, and Sami’s a dark horse… It’s gotta be somebody that they have a lot of faith in and knows is going to be here for the long haul.”
While the outcome of WrestleMania 39 is far from certain, The Undertaker’s endorsement has undoubtedly given Rhodes a boost of confidence ahead of the biggest match of his career. With his impressive momentum and unwavering confidence, will Cody Rhodes emerge victorious and claim the Undisputed WWE Universal Title? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the stakes have never been higher for this talented wrestler.
