Cody Rhodes admits getting tired of wrestling the same guys
Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes has shared his thoughts on wrestling the same opponents in WWE.
Speaking on the Nikki and Brie show, Rhodes opened up and reflected on his upcoming match with Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42, when he admitted that he was getting “tired of wrestling” the same rivals.
“I hope that doesn’t put a you know, rain on anyone’s parade, but I’m getting tired of wrestling guys,” Rhodes said.
However, as the crowd and The Bella Twins expressed their disapproval of the “wrestling guys” statement, Rhodes proceeded to explain that he now wants new rivals in WWE.
“No, no. You get into these longstanding like rivalries, and you’re just like you’re in there. I mean, me and your husband [Seth Rollins] wrestled four times now. Like, and more than that, really, but like four and I think took a great deal out of each other on the way. I mean, so I don’t know if that’s what I’m looking to do here. As much as I want him [Randy Orton] to see me, that’s the hill in front of me,” Rhodes concluded.
Since Rhodes’ return to WWE in 2022, he has wrestled Rollins a total of 22-times (including televised and live show matches).
