IMO there is only one way to book your way out of this.
1) Make the whole "Rock counciled Cody" to give him the match a heel ploy that was masterminded by the Elders of the Bloodline. Bloodline felt threatened by Cody and wanted to remove him.
2) Cody learns of this deception and not only challenges Reigns at WM, but wants the Rock too. Leading to Rock vs Reigns vs Cody at WM40. This also protects the Rock because really no chance can he work a full 1:1 match without blowing up, but a triple threat will give him rest time.
3) The Rock and Reigns of course come to blows in the match and it creates the dissention between the two of them. Reigns loses, blames The Rock, and they attack him the next night on Raw in a violent assault. This removes Rock from TV for a bit but also actually gives them an actual reason for a true 1:1 match at Wrestlemania (really it makes no sense for them to be fueding now considering the last time we saw Rock and Reigns together The Rock was helping him).
4) Cody wins the title, and finishes his story.
