On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Bully Ray discussed Cody Rhodes getting payback on The Rock by slapping him last week on WWE SmackDown.
The Rock previously slapped Cody at the WrestleMania 40 Kickoff event in Las Vegas, NV.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On The Rock smacking Cody Rhodes: “Right after that smack happened at the press conference, that Monday, when we came on this show, who was the very first person that said ‘Cody needs to smack Rocky back? Cody needs to receipt The Rock?’ I was adamant about that. No matter what Cody would’ve done or said, you have to…if a man smacks you in the face, you have to smack him back. I’m not talking about…you don’t even have to punch him, you got to smack him.”
On Cody Rhodes giving The Rock a receipt: “You have to give him a little bit of his own medicine because nobody in hell could ever think that Cody would smack The Rock in the face. That’s exactly what needed to happen, and I was adamant on this show about it. And I was very happy to see it happen. I was very happy to hear that response from the crowd. And I thought it was a 9 out of 10.”
At WrestleMania 40 (Night One), Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins will face The Rock and Roman Reigns in a tag team match.
Rhodes will then challenge Reigns for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 40 (Night Two).
