Roman and Cody had a head-to-head encounter before their Hollywood run-in. Roman attempted to intimidate Cody with his typical persuasive manner.

“You didn’t wanna do the Stardust thing so you ran away. You started a company and you couldn’t get over in it. So you ran away!” said Roman. 

In response to the brutal comments, Rhodes wasn’t afraid to backlash at The Tribal Chief as he reasserted his confidence that he could end Reigns’ incredible unbeaten run. 

“You’re gonna be a man without a family [after WrestleMania 39],” Rhodes fired back. “A Roman with no more reigns, a Chief without a tribe.”
