Ahead of WWE Money in the Bank 2025, Kai Cenat was name-dropped by Cody Rhodes during an episode of WWE SmackDown.
Cody referenced John Cena’s recent appearance on Kai’s livestream, noting how Cena was trying to connect with the younger generation.
Kai caught the promo during his own stream and had a fired-up response for Cody. He said,
“Now, Cody Rhodes. Now, Cody. Cody. Cody. If I march my way up to that motherf—… We left it at that. Cody, if I march my way up to that ring the next time I see you, I’m beating your ass, bro. I need an apology or something. If I ever go to another WWE event, Cody, I’m calling you out. When I see you, I’m hopping in the ring. That’s it. That’s all I’m gonna say. They don’t want me in that ring, bro.”
Cenat previously attended WWE RAW in January and has expressed interest in becoming a WWE Superstar.
During a recent appearance on the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Naomi revealed that it was hard for her to stay in character following her Money in the Bank 2025 win.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On her reaction to winning the briefcase: “Even that day and everything leading up to it, and in my own mind, I knew I earned this moment and I deserved it, but I still wasn’t psyching myself up or telling myself until I wrapped my fingers around this handle. In that moment, the funny thing, it took so much to hold back my tears at that moment. I finally let it release when I had the after-show with Big E. It was important that I stayed true to who the character Naomi is, at this time and moment.”
On the difficulty of staying in character in the moment: “But that part was really hard, ’cause I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve finally did it.’ This is a year in the making for me, to my return, wanting to really make the best use of my time here, and not be too — I’ve always cared, but be a little more assertive and aggressive.”
