Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins ventured out for a special appearance on Friday Night SmackDown this week to officially respond to The Rock's challenge for a tag team match at FightMania 40 on April 6 in Philadelphia.
They accepted.
Of course they agreed.
They took a hell of an angle to get there, with Rollins calling Rock “Mr.”. Midlife Crisis” and Rock telling Cody he was “a mistake.” This led to Rhodes finally giving him a receipt for that slap.
They ran out of time on FOX right after, ending the series before the fights could break out. It worked pretty well to continue building hype around what will surely be a monster match.

- WWE Universal Championship: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Cody Rhodes
