Cody Rhodes cooked on WWE RAW.
Cody Rhodes came to the ring and looked ahead to his match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40. He brought up his looming showdown with Reigns on the March 22 episode of WWE RAW. Cody noted that The Rock had an “entertaining” concert Friday night on SmackDown. He cited Rock calling himself “our favorite heel” and named past greats.
Cody stated that he did not think that The Rock was a heel; instead, he thought he was an asshole. He noted that The Rock had been crying backstage this whole time, as he went to the TKO board to bring him back for WrestleMania. Cody called them “Yes” people who didn’t tell it like it was. He said that The Rock was a lot of great things, but he was a carny and a terrible salesman.
Rhodes then said that the locker room did not need The Rock more than he needed them. He referred to The Rock bringing up his mom and said that his mom was not afraid of The Rock. As for WrestleMania, he admitted that he did not know whether he was going to finish the story at WrestleMania, but he criticized The Rock’s apparent certainty that The Bloodline would win.
He questioned The Rock, saying, “Is it going to be Big Dwayne Energy, or is it just going to be LDS: Little Dick Syndrome?” Additionally, Cody said that The Rock would be Roman Reigns’ side chick at WrestleMania.
Paul Heyman interrupted and ultimately got Rhodes to agree to come to SmackDown alone on Friday for his face-to-face with Roman Reigns.
