Cody Rhodes Challenged To WWE Championship Match Outside The Company

Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has been challenged to defend his championship in a big match outside of the company.

In recent months, WWE has begun sending more talent signed to the company to various promotions around the world, with a number of NXT stars appearing in TNA and the independents.

However, top names such as AJ Styles, IYO SKY and Shinsuke Nakamura have made the trip over to Japan this year for matches in Pro Wrestling NOAH and Marigold.

The big Wrestle Dynasty crossover event with NJPW, AEW, CMLL, STARDOM and ROH is set to take place at the Tokyo Dome on January 5, with Kenny Omega returning to the ring on the show, taking on Gabe Kidd.

Taking to Twitter today, Gabe Kidd was getting in the spirit of the crossover, challenging Randy Orton to a match.

He wrote:

.@RandyOrton WHAT YOU SAYING FAM

SPEAK TO YOUR BOSS AND COME FIGHT ME

YOU COULD NEVER DO WHAT I DO I

F YOU DISAGREE, COME DO SOMETHING

Gabe didn’t stop with just Orton, as he continued on, challenging Cody Rhodes to a match for the WWE Championship in the Tokyo Dome.

He added:

I’M PAST THE POINT OF CARING WHAT THESE MAN WHO’VE BEEN CHILLING IN THIS GAME FOR 20+ YEARS THINK

@CodyRhodes I’VE BEAT YOU CLEAN

IF YOU A REAL CHAMP, COME TO THE TOKYO DOME AND DEFEND THAT WWE TITLE AGAINST ME

WHAT YOU GOT TO LOSE, PUSSY

LET’S CHANGE THE GAME
