How Cody Rhodes Really Feels About Sharing WWE Spotlight With Roman Reigns
Cody Rhodes has addressed the return to WWE of Roman Reigns and explained if SmackDown is going to be big enough for both of them.
Cody Rhodes finally finished his story at WrestleMania 40 when he defeated Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship at the second time of asking.
Reigns disappeared following that loss while Rhodes was forced to contend with the rebuilt Bloodline headed by Solo Sikoa. Rhodes successfully defended his title against Sikoa at SummerSlam and had Roman Reigns to thank as Reigns made his long-awaited return to WWE to take out the man now calling himself the Tribal Chief.
With Roman Reigns now back on SmackDown, is his star power threatening to overshadow the WWE Champion? Cody Rhodes doesn’t think so.
Cody Rhodes Happy To Share Spotlight With Roman Reigns
Speaking at Fanatics Fest NYC, Cody Rhodes explained why WWE and SmackDown are more than big enough to contain both superstars as he contends WWE’s roster is the best it has ever been:
WWE and I don’t mean this in a braggadocious way, is currently the most popular it’s ever been. A considerable amount of that has to do with the Bloodline and Roman Reigns. There are people that think that forces cannot co-exist on the show. That’s crazy.
WWE’s roster is the best that it’s ever been. I am happy and glad to share SmackDown, to share Raw, to share every PLE with Roman Reigns. However, [the Undisputed WWE Championship], belongs to me.
The Undisputed WWE Championship might belong to Cody Rhodes right now but The American Nightmare will defend that title against Kevin Owens at Bash In Berlin on August 31st.
