The heel turn of John Cena that took place at The Elimination Chamber event last Saturday shocked the entire world of wrestling. Cena participated in the men’s Chamber match, won it, and earned the right to challenge Cody Rhodes in the main event of WrestleMania 41. Before the event, Cody was proposed by the Rock to be his champion; the corporate champion.
The Rock demanded an answer from Cody after the men’s Chamber match inside the ring with Cena being present at the site. As Cody declined to be the corporate champion, John Cena shocked the entire world by attacking and beating down Cody Rhodes, cementing his shocking heel turn after more than 21 long years.

This is definitely going to be a huge challenge for Cody Rhodes to lead WWE as the prime babyface of the promotion against heels like The Rock and John Cena who are definitely the biggest names in sports entertainment.
