WWE: Cody Rhodes isn’t just a talented wrestler, he’s also an emotional, passionate competitor who wears his heart on his sleeve. From bitter rivalries to unscripted explosions, he’s had plenty of moments where emotions ran high. These aren’t just wrestling matches, they’re moments that defined Cody’s career and proved that he’s willing to go to war for his place in WWE.
Before returning to WWE, Cody Rhodes was one of the pillars of AEW. His feud with Chris Jericho turned personal when Jericho took shots at Cody’s family. What started as a scripted promo quickly turned real as Cody fired back with real-life insults, catching even Jericho off-guard. The moment made it one of AEW’s most heated exchanges.
The build-up to WrestleMania 40 was personal. Cody Rhodes was on a mission to dethrone Roman Reigns, but The Rock stood in his way. What was supposed to be a simple segment turned violent when The Rock took things too far, ambushing Cody in the parking lot and leaving him bloodied. The segment was meant to be scripted, but The Rock’s brutal execution made it feel all too real, and Cody’s aggression after the beatdown showed how personal things had become.
