I agree that Rock vs Roman doesn't need the title.
But if WWE is committed to Roman breaking Hogan's record, I'd prefer Rcok vs Roman at Mania to protect Cody
At last check WWE has already moved 45,000 tickets before the show. That was December and they planned for a stadium of 55,000 there.
Wrestlemania 40 has moved 90,000 tickets already.
I have to think at this point WWE maybe wanting to use Rock with Punk towards Wrestlemania to sell a network on RAW tv rights deal. Plus drive subscriptions to Peacock for WWE Network.
If what Rock claimed in that interview last year , he was originally set to face Roman last year. Then as I posted using Rock and Punk towards their biggest event seems to be a possible lure to TV people.

Not sure if it's been reported here already or not but Raquel Rodriguez is having health problems...mast cell activation syndrome, which doesn't sound fun...

Because Cody vs Punk is a big deal, Seth's matches are never a big deal and if he defends against Punk it's a mid-card match. Seth isn't the attraction and has never been booked as such. You also have to figure the WWE doesn't want 4 active year long reigns...Seth getting a year run while Roman is chasing Hogan just makes him look like the weaker guy and devalues the belt.
