Cody Rhodes Trades Personal Insults With “Piece Of S**t” John Cena On WWE Raw

Cody Rhodes WWE Champion

The Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes was ready to fire back against his WrestleMania 41 opponent, John Cena.

During the two episodes of Raw after John Cena turned heel at Elimination Chamber, the segments between Cena and Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes have followed the same pattern. Cena spoke first, Rhodes followed, and Cena ended up leaving.

It was different on WWE Raw in London because after Cena made his entrance, Rhodes walked out right after and it became something of a promo duel.

Cody told Cena there was a lot you can make fun of when it comes to Cody, such as his lisp, the arm tattoo that is on his neck and the fact that Cody got booed in a company he created, which was a reference to AEW. Cody said that they used to ride together, so Cody knows that Cena cares about him and he knows that Cena cared about the fans. Cody wanted Cena to tell them “why” he did what he did to them.

When Cena replied, he talked about how people have said he has buried other wrestlers in the past. Cena clarified that by saying he buried mediocrity. According to Cena, Cody manipulated his way to the top. Cena said that Cody is nothing more than Cena’s chauffeur. Cena said that Cody is too perfect, too polished, too rehearsed and relies on lazy gimmicks like them signing his name over and over again to get by.

In Cena’s opinion, Cody is still afraid to show who he is. Cena said that Cody’s a generic mix of every superstar he’s ever loved and it makes him look like a 16-year-old taking acting lessons who is still afraid of public speaking. Cena also trashed Cody for having his wrestling gimmick tattooed on his neck. Cena said it made Cody look like a common fan like them. Cena told Cody that the last real champion Cena is going to expose Cody for what he is, an “errand boy that got lucky.” Cena said that was his why.

Cody Rhodes References Vince McMahon, John Cena Takes A Shot At AEW, And Things Get Physical

The promo battle picked up from there as Cody admitted that maybe he was chosen and he said that the fans chose him. Cody wondered if Cena could say that, or was it one guy in an office who chose him, and we can’t talk about him? That was a Vince McMahon reference, and the crowd knew it by how they reacted with gasps.

Cody said that everybody is so terrified of Cena on the mic, but Cody knows that Cena has more d**k in that promo than he does in his jorts. Cody said if you want to make fun of Cody then just remember that Cena is the one who hangs out with Zac Efron and wishes he was 16 years old.

When talking about current events, Cody said between the two of them, which one sold out to The Rock? The fans chanted “you sold out” at Cena. Cody told Cena that “You’re still my hero, but you’re also a piece of s**t.” And it led to a “piece of s**t” chant.

The 16-time World Champion Cena said that he has never left because he has always been here. Cena said that no matter what garbage they give him, he finds a way to make it great. Cena told Cody that he had to leave because at his best, he couldn’t wipe Cena’s ass. Cena said that he makes empires for billionaires while Cody steals money from their kids and that was an insult of AEW’s boss Tony Khan, who is the son of a billionaire. Cena told Cody he’ll see him at WrestleMania.

Cody reminded Cena that never once has an audience chanted “you can’t wrestle” at him. That led to fans chanting “you can’t wrestle” while Cena looked around.

Cena got back in the ring after being on the apron and it looked like they were going to fight, but instead Cena tried to back away. Cena went for a cheap shot, Cody hooked him and Cody hit Cross Rhodes. Cena sold it like he was out on the mat while Cody pointed at the WrestleMania sign. The fans sang “Cody, Cody Rhodes” for the champion while Cody held up his WWE Title to end it.

Even though they are on-screen rivals, Cody Rhodes admitted recently that he’s learned a lot of valuable lessons from The Rock.

The Rhodes-Cena match is expected to main event WrestleMania 41 Sunday on April 20th in Las Vegas.
