Cody Rhodes addresses future plans after victory at WrestleMania 38

The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes made a triumphant return to WWE on Day 1 of the most stupendous two night event in WWE history, WrestleMania 38. Rhodes came out as the mystery opponent of the Visionary Seth Rollins and the two stole the night before Rhodes defeated Rollins.

Now, after a huge return, Rhodes is planning to battle the new Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns and challenge him for the championship. The American Nightmare came out on Raw after WrestleMania and made his intentions clear that he was there for gold. Rhodes recently opened up about how he felt about Roman Reigns. Here’s what he said:

“When I left here, Roman Reigns was on top. And I think Roman Reigns was experiencing some of the negative byproduct of being on top. Some of the pushback that a new face, a new individual [faces]. But the thing that makes a champion in any company is consistency. When he said ‘Dallas, Texas, acknowledge me’ and whether they’re supposed to boo, cheer, whatever it might be, and they acknowledged him.”

“He has truly gotten over via consistentcy and via hard work. What he has going now with Paul Heyman and with [The Usos]. He’s an intimidating presence. Obviously, again, it exists. There’s a match out there that is likely ‘the match’ that exists out there. But before the matches, you’ve gotta cross paths in some capacity and we haven’t yet, and I look forward to that.” – Cody Rhodes claimed on WWE The Bump

Cody Rhodes is currently reported to continue his rivalry with Seth Rollins
