Cody Rhodes On WWE Possibly Splitting Up The Belts After WrestleMania 39

Last year at WrestleMania, Roman Reigns walked into the main event as the Universal Champion, and he walked out as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion after he defeated Brock Lesnar. Roman has been holding both belts for almost a year which has led to a lot of talk about whether or not they should be split up again.

Cody Rhodes is currently set to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39, and he recently talked about what it would take to split the belts up during an appearance on The Bart Winkler Show.

“What it will take for the titles to eventually be separated is, this happened in boxing years ago, maybe whoever is coming out of WrestleMania…obviously, I want to say with the most confidence in the world that it’s going to be me, but maybe who leaves WrestleMania, it’s time for perhaps management to step in and make that call so that you never put it on potentially me or potentially Roman Reigns to say, ‘I want this one more than the other.’

Of course, the fan in me, I want my hands on the WWE Championship, its the one that [Dusty Rhodes] never got, but it would take someone telling me, ‘we have to go this way, both brands need a title.’ Once you have them, [Roman Reigns] threw them down in front of me the other day and I felt my heart jump. For real, how sincerely I love these title belts that I’ve never touched. That’s a good time for maybe management to step in. If they did, I’d be all about it.”

Do you think WWE should split the belts up after WrestleMania? Sound off in the comments below.
