Cody Rhodes Reveals Advice From John Cena When AEW Fans Started Booing Him

WWE

Cody Rhodes has revealed the advice John Cena gave him when fans started booing him towards the end of his AEW run.

Many people have compared Rhodes’ relationship with AEW fans during that period as similar to Cena’s with WWE fans in years gone by, and that can be summarised in one word – polarising.

WWE is celebrating 20 years of John Cena this month, and in a new video featuring several different WWE stars talking about Cena, Rhodes said:

“Best advice John Cena ever gave me, twofold. The first thing was rather recently, I was going through a polarizing time in my career. We were getting for the first time in my career a ‘Let’s go Cody, Cody sucks’ type thing and he very eloquently told me to be honest with myself, as to why a crowd would react that way. Look in the mirror, and if you feel you’re doing the right thing, keep doing it.

“Second piece of advice is that the crowd starts making any noise, in any capacity, they start clapping their hands, they start stomping their feet. They want you to fight back, something, then you have to reward them.”

Since he left AEW and joined WWE, WWE fans do seem to have taken rather kindly to Cody Rhodes and he’s been getting pretty much completely positive reactions.

Rhodes faces Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins in a Hell in a Cell match this coming Sunday, after already beating Rollins at both WrestleMania and WrestleMania Backlash.
