Thoughts About Cody Rhodes

[Tommy Thunder]

I think Rhodes has the ability to play a good face, no doubt. He strikes me as the type that's born to be a heel, but I'm sure he'd be more then capable of pulling off a face if required.

On another note, if Barrett isn't back in time for MITB, then Rhodes is my second choice to win, ahead of Ziggler. I don't think Ziggler needs the briefcase at this point in time since he's got quite a bit of momentum behind him. Rhodes on the other hand has been in a bit of a slump since dropping the title to Show at Mania (and then dropping it again to Christian later), so I think winning the briefcase would give him that boost that he needs.

I would love to see Rhodes win MITB just to stick it to everybody else, but I'm also scared that he will get the ADR treatment if he does. I'm genuinely afraid that he will be pushed too hard, too soon, and in the wrong direction - and an awesome wrestler becomes the next ADR or Jack Swagger, so much potential but terribly wasted. I would like to see Rhodes put on an awesome show, maybe even come close to the win, and come out of the match with a new feud to continue getting him over. That, and I still have hopes for him "pulling an Ultimate Warrior."

And yes, the Beautiful Disaster is epic.

IMO when Cody Rhodes made his debut five years ago, he was a babyface. Unfortunately, he failed to get over as a babyface. In other words, he was just another face in the crowd at the time.

But ever since Rhodes turned heel at the Night of Champions ​PPV, Rhodes finally found his niche. He is very over with the WWE Universe with his promos and heel tactics.
