Editor’s Opinion:

This was the outcome that many of us expected, and we are very satisfied with the result. I’ve said many times that Cody Rhodes winning the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania will be one of the greatest moments in professional wrestling history, and I stand by that statement. This is the first part of that prophecy coming true and I can’t wait to see it come to fruition!
