In fact, action broke out outside of the ropes numerous times ... and Cody and Seth were in for a world of pain, as Rock -- a real-deal exec with WWE's parent company, TKO -- made it clear to the ref early on ... if he counted, he's fired.
Rock secured the dub with a vicious People's Elbow ... but not before giving a shout-out to Cody's mom.

Rock pinned Cody after the move ... and the win comes with some serious weight, as Rhodes' fight for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship will now go down under Bloodline rules.
The wild match was hopefully a sign of more awesome moments to come on night two ... when Cody and Roman face off for the whole shebang.
