Cody Rhodes has been praised for his actions at Saturday’s (February 3) WWE house show, in his first appearance since his controversial segment on SmackDown featuring the return of The Rock.
The American Nightmare was in action at this weekend’s live event in Knoxville, Tennessee, defeating Shinsuke Nakamura in the show’s main event.
Footage has now emerged showing a wholesome moment between Rhodes and a fan.
In the video which you can watch below, Rhodes points out that a fan is holding a sign reading “legally blind but trying to see Cody Rhodes”.
The American Nightmare then greeted her at the barricade, hugging her and signing a piece of a broken table to give to her.
Rhodes then took to the mic to note to thank the Knoxville crown, noting that it was great to visit on the road to WrestleMania 40.
He then stayed at ringside to take photos and sign more merchandise for fans.
Results from the house show were as follows (via Wrestling Bodyslam):
