The Rock\'s return to WWE caused some fans to unleash fury online. They are not happy at all about how Cody Rhodes lost his spot to Dwayne Johnson, and, while he is a constant Cody Rhodes supporter, Ricochet is speaking out about this.
Ricochet Speaks Out
Initially expected to be in the main event of WrestleMania 40 against Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal championship, Cody Rhodes shifted gears on a recent episode of SmackDown, opting to bring out The Rock instead, passing the torch for that WrestleMania main event match. Now Roman Reigns is in for a showdown with The Rock instead.
This decision sparked a strong reaction from the Internet Wrestling community, with overwhelming support for Rhodes and negative comments directed at The Rock and WWE. This was noticed by everyone, and WWE even realizes that fans aren\'t happy. The match with Rock is on now, and that\'s not changing. Ricochet had to speak out after seeing his timeline full of disgruntled fans.
Taking note of the situation, Ricochet shared his perspective on social media. While acknowledging himself as Cody Rhodes\' supporter, he labeled the Internet Wrestling Community as a toxic space. This is something he said he saw amplified in recent memory.
First, let me say there is no bigger Cody supporter than me, ask @SamanthaTheBomb
2nd, you guys have shown me how truly toxic the IWC is haha

WWE Won\'t Be Changing Their Plans
Although fans may want to cry out for a change, that is not happening. Now, it is The Rock vs Roman Reigns. As I previously noted, I was told that there is \"no chance in hell\" that they\'ll give that match back to Cody Rhodes. That exact wording was used, but unlike Vince McMahon\'s regime, who was known to make calls along this line, the fact is that The Rock is behind this as a massive power play.
