Cody Rhodes made his in-ring return to the WWE with a bang. On his return, he defeated former two-time Universal Champion, Seth Rollins in an instant classic. In his second outing in the company, he defeated Two Time WWE Champion ‘The Miz’. Cody in his promos made it clear that he is after the championships as he wants to achieve something that his late father could never achieve, that is winning the WWE Championship.
But WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bishoff has some opinions of his own. Appearing on the After 83 Weeks podcast, Eric Bishoff answered a query by a fan where he was asked if Rhodes could be the on to beat Roman for the Unified Championship titles:
“I don’t see it; I don’t see it”
He continued explaining why it wouldn’t make sense for The American Nightmare to beat The Tribal Chief:
“The only way I can see that being interesting would be if Roman had more of a traditional heel role. I don’t think Roman has a lot of heat. I think Roman’s playing that heel character as it is defined by today’s standards and creative standards in television. But who hates Roman Reigns? As a character, do you have so much disdain for his character – not how they use him or his entrance isn’t cool. But, just as a character, you feel he’s such a fantastic villain that he’s at a stage where he needs to be beaten?”
What is next in line for Cody Rhodes?
Cody Recently defeated Kevin Owens via count out after Rollins and Owens had a ringside argument which led to Owens walking off towards backstage. After Seth challenged the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes for a rematch, they are slated to face each other at the Wrestlemania Backlash match. Cody recently returned to the WWE ring as handpicked mystery opponent of Seth Rollins from the Vince McMahon defeating ‘The Visionary’ in a one-on-one classic.
