Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has revealed an emotional comment his chief rival of the past couple years, Roman Reigns, made to him.
Rhodes and Reigns main evented two consecutive WrestleManias together at 39 and 40, and Rhodes has always maintained that they have a fairly distant relationship off camera.
However, he has now revealed one message that Reigns did give to him that has an emotional sentiment.
With WWE Wrestlepalooza debuting on Saturday, Cody Rhodes appeared on ESPN and discussed the new WWE/ESPN partnership for PLEs.
In doing so, he brought up Reigns and said:
“We don’t talk a lot, but he said something to me that really stuck out with me and it’s very sincere.
“It’s that WWE and pro-wrestling in general going to such a big platform like ESPN, it’s really everything that our dads ever worked for.
“So that’s always kinda there. They did it all, and then we get to revel in this wonderful success – so we better bring it.”
