Cody Rhodes has discussed giving everything in rehabbing his injury.
At WWE Royal Rumble, Cody Rhodes made his return after seven months away with a torn pectoral injury to win the Men’s Royal Rumble match.
In the lead-up to the event, WWE aired video packages hyping Cody’s return with some footage of his recovery from the injury.
Speaking on After The Bell with Corey Graves, Cody Rhodes discussed giving everything in rehabbing his injury. He stated:
“I had that moment with my wife, Brandi, where she didn’t tell me in a mean way, but she let me know that if I got back, and I hadn’t done everything right, I would be upset.”
“I would be incomplete if I hadn’t done everything right. So she loaned me her trainer, who I can’t pronounce his last name. Brad is his name. He’s amazing. He works in Atlanta. Brad and I started training and then Brad hooked me up with his dietitian.”
“His dietitian mainly does bodybuilding, that being Jeff. One of the noticeable things I was glad people noticed that my suit pants don’t fit anymore.”
“A week before the Rumble, I slipped under 10% body fat for the first time in my career and I had come down from 240 as I had bulked up to 240.”
“Yeah, daddy was eating first. I balked up to 240 and then I got under 10% a week before the Rumble and I was under 9.6% the day of the Rumble, but feeling healthy, still feeling good and happy to have done everything with Brian, with Jeff, and with Brad.”
Cody Rhodes is currently scheduled to face Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39 in April.
