In an interview with Superstar Crossover on the Road To WrestleMania 39, Cody Rhodes highlighted the fact that he wouldn’t be as successful as he is today were it not for the sacrifices made by his wife, Brandi Rhodes. The American Nightmare also explained the importance of his wife and daughter in the pursuit of his wrestling goals.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On how Brandi Rhodes provided the opportunity for him to return to the ring with WWE: “It’s not a story that anyone’s ever really going to know, but I wouldn’t even be able to have come back if Brandi had not made a very selfless decision that changed my life.It’s hard to even speak about it without getting emotional. Brandi deserves the WWE Championship almost more than I do. I really look forward to trying to be able to do that.”
On the importance of family to his pursuit of the titles: “As a husband and a father, you report back to these girls. You report back to them, and that would lead me to the other most important woman in my life, which is my daughter. [She] doesn’t have a clue what’s going on, but I feel such a responsibility to report back hopefully with two championships and to just report back having given everything I possibly could.”
