WrestleMania 40 ended with one of the most dramatic finishes in the history of the WWE event, as Cody Rhodes finally won the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Rhodes pinned Roman Reigns after a chaotic main event April 7 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, putting an end to Reigns’ 1,316-day run as champ. In doing so, he “finished the story” and became the first member of his wrestling family, which includes his late father, Dusty Rhodes, to win a top WWE championship.

But again, and I don’t say this with any arrogance, he probably would have said, “I told you so. I knew he could.” He was always more confident in me than I was in me. So I feel like it would have been a really special thing had he been there of course to see it, just because he could really kind of revel in that, that his name moves on. And not just because of him.
