“I heard enough booes”; WWE legend says Cody Rhodes was booed by fans on RAW

During this week’s RAW, a small portion of the audience booed Cody Rhodes, according to WWE legend Bully Ray. As Rhodes entered WWE RAW this past week, Seth Rollins informed him that he would face a mystery opponent later on in the show. The unidentified opponent turned out to be Kevin Owens, who lost after being counted out.
The WWE Hall Of Famer shared his thoughts on this week’s Busted Open and explained why Cody was booed during his match with Kevin Owens:
“This is why I said, in the main event last night, I felt that people were quiet last night. I don’t think they were really immersed in Cody in the beginning. I felt that they should have been behind him that much more but they weren’t because I feel like they were split with Kevin (Owens) out there. Then Kevin hits a legal, very cool-looking, ultra-violent superplex off the top and Cody gets his leg on the bottom rope. I’m telling you, when I watched it last night, I was smacked in the face and in the ears by the boos. Did I hear every single person in Buffalo booing Cody getting his foot on the bottom rope? Absolutely not.”
Continuing his discussion of Cody’s kick-out, which had caused an adverse reaction from the WWE Universe, Bully Ray said stated:
“But I heard enough boos to know that a US wrestling audience does not appreciate a babyface using the bottom rope as an out, especially when they get hit with a legitimate move”
Former WWE writer points out Cody Rhodes’ serious mistake on RAW
In some parts of Rhodes’ promo, his back was facing the hard camera. According to former WWE writer Vince Russo, Vince McMahon would have been unhappy in the Gorilla Position because of the rookie error:
“During a good portion of this promo, bro, Cody’s back is to the hard camera. It’s like, bro, really?” questioned Vince Russo. “You learn that on the first day of the job, and I was like, bro, seriously? Vince had to be throwing a fit in the back.”
The crowd reacted strongly to Rhodes’ promo with Seth Rollins at the start of the show, with much “Cody” chanting going around the arena. It will be interesting to see how the American Nightmare is booked for his match at WrestleMania Backlash.
