Cody Rhodes has named the match between Gunther and Seth Rollins as the one he is most looking forward to at WrestleMania 42, scheduled for April 18, 2026. Speaking on ESPN's Get Up, Rhodes emphasized his preference for traditional wrestling, stating that the bout represents 'good, old-fashioned wrestling.' Seth Rollins, who has been sidelined due to a shoulder injury from his match against Rhodes at WWE Crown Jewel in October 2025, is making his return in this highly anticipated clash. The match is expected to showcase both wrestlers' in-ring skills rather than relying on spectacle. Additionally, Rhodes discussed broadcaster Pat McAfee's role in the lead-up to his Undisputed WWE Championship defense against Randy Orton, referring to McAfee as a 'rat' and criticizing his entourage for not providing enough guidance.
