I met Cody at a house show in Feb of 2016. He was Stardust at the time and even if he hated it, he was one of the few people to interact with fans after the show. He talked with my family for a few moments and took a picture with us, really a great guy.

Kinda crazy how nobody is talking about what Cody talked about here with his run in AEW with the crowd WANTING him to heel turn so his meta way of being a heel was to not give them that satisfaction. His character really was like Homelander, a heel who pretends to be a face, it's fascinating.

10:18 I love how this applies to Roman after Wrestlemania. As loud as the reaction is for him the past year, a good amount of people still believe in the hype and cheer him. Roman 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘬 Cody's full circle moment and the finish to his story. The divide is now as clear as day, and the demand for Cody to win is now stronger than ever. The heat on Roman for simply being the one who won even when it felt like he shouldn't have will probably skyrocket as much as when he beat the Undertaker.

Good on him for leaving...that normally ends badly but he has come back better. Cody Rhodes is defn the future...so well spoken, articulate, genuine. With Reigns there is feigned cynicism, Cena and Rock have an artificial bravado, this guy is the real deal. This guy can evolve into something great for the buisness. WWE made a good choice bringing him back.
