Sunday’s WWE SummerSlam 2025 Night 2 event at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey featured Cody Rhodes defeating John Cena in a Street Fight to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion.
During the match, Rhodes teased turning heel after taking apart a turnbuckle and using it as a weapon on Cena. This heel tease lead to just being a tease and not an actual heel turn in the end.
