I saw online PWInsider reporting Cody Rhodes was going to face the winner of The Rock vs. Roman Reigns at Summerslam and unify the titles but I can't find it on the site.  Where did you report this?

We didn't report any of that, at all.  I noted in an article on The Rock yesterday that the Cody scenario was something talked about.  We never reported in any way, shape or form that was a done deal or that it was the official plan.  Unfortunately, reading comprehension doesn't exist for a lot of people on social media and a lot of what I wrote in a very long piece was cut up and twisted or taken completely out of context.  That's not our fault and if you are reading something we "reported" elsewhere but aren't coming here to read it yourself, but THEN come here to write an email asking about it, all I have to ask is...REALLY?

Is it possible WWE will pull back on Rock and put Cody back in against Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania?

It's live TV every single week.  They can change direction any time they want and pivot to something different, including the original Cody vs. Roman plan.  Whether they actually do remain to be seen.  My gut is that we'll see Rock vs. Roman but it's always possible Rock and/or WWE management will see the negative responses and seek to prevent that from getting worse.  We'll see.  I know that WWE was absolutely monitoring the responses.

Is it possible CM Punk was lucky he got legitimately injured and is avoiding all this drama?

I'll never write someone is lucky they are injured, need a surgery and have to endure a lot of physical rehab, so no.  I don't call that lucky.

Is WWE signing Jordynne Grace?

She's signed with TNA currently.  Unless a deal is made where TNA releases her, no.

How does The Rock stuff change plans for Drew McIntyre?

I have never heard what the Mania plans were for McIntyre, so I can't say for sure.  I don't believe there was any major ripple effect.

What do you think of The Bellas throwing John Laurinaitis under the bus with their statement?

I think they made it very clear how they feel about Laurinaitis and Vince McMahon and I applaud them for what they said.
