Cody Rhodes has been making quite the name for himself since his departure from the WWE; joining the Bullet Club, winning championships around the globe and he shared those accomplishments recently on Busted Open Radio.

Here are the highlights:

Feeling Free Since Leaving The WWE:

“Definitely. I probably could have been a bit more free in my time in WWE. I think if anything this has taught me, or it showed me where my balls were if that makes sense. It put me in a position now where I’m gonna be but free. There’s nobody who’s gonna put a gun to my head other than, like Bubba eloquently put it, the fans at this point and that’s hands down wherever I go to wrestle. I’m still not exclusive anywhere and wherever I go it’s been free and it should be nothing but free from here on out.”

Wrestling All Over The World Since Leaving WWE & The Young Bucks:
“Yeah and I think a big shock and it wasn’t what I was looking for. Dave Meltzer actually mentioned this to me, I wrestled the other night in a cow palace. A show in the cow palace and it wasn’t for WWE and he asked me, well is it financially similar? And it’s ridiculous. There’s money all over the place in professional wrestling. Wherever there’s a good product and consistent fans, it’s a – you don’t need it. I needed WWE to build my name and get the brand to where it’s gotten me today. If you look at somebody like The Young Bucks, The Young Bucks could go to WWE if they want whenever, if they wanted to, but they would go for reasons of a match they wanted to have or to be a part of a WrestleMania. They definitely don’t need it. Their brand is making money hand over foot and turning out match of the year performances on a regular basis. They’re a model to me for anybody who thinks you need or there’s a road-map you have to follow, there is not.”
