Ever since The American Nightmare returned to the company, he has been treated like a star by the Triple H-led creative team. Fans love seeing him on screen, and both his Royal Rumble wins were met with huge cheers from the crowd.

At WrestleMania XL, fans started an online movement to prevent The Rock from replacing Cody Rhodes in a world title match against Roman Reigns. Viewers reacted positively when Rhodes dethroned Reigns last year.
