HEEL OF THE RING PODCAST
Why has WWE / Creative, Paul Levesque change The decision go with The Rock vs Roman Reigns as the headline bout for WrestleMania 40, believing it’d be a greater attraction for the mainstream and also help push some positive momentum for the company. we ask why? who behind this?
‘Cody was the plan.

The Vince thing ends up worse than they thought and they changed the plan. 100%

It was said that Cody Rhodes not facing Roman Reigns wasn’t done to target and politic Cody out of his Mania main event out of malice, but out of the belief that The Rock was the best idea to make money now and respect his new position with TKO.

This was a strategic move to give Dwayne Johnson more political power overall and to show Endeavor’s faith in his involvement and that even Paul Levesque would "lose that power struggle with Johnson at this point", as one source surmised.Brian Gewirtz will be in the mix as the voice representing The Rock in the WWE Creative process going forward.

There are some who believe Gewirtz will be around physically at least for major shows going forward, could even be there as a “Plan B” if Endeavor ever needs to pivot WWE's direction and go with a Dwayne Johnson-backed creative team down the line.
