Cody Rhodes Launching Podcast With WWE Stars

Cody Rhodes is set to head up a new podcast.

At WrestleMania 41, Cody Rhodes will compete in one of the biggest matches of his career. In the main event of night two, the American Nightmare will put the Undisputed WWE Championship on the line against John Cena.

With Cena just months from retirement, the match represents arguably his last opportunity to win World Championship gold. If he does so, he’ll finally capture his 17th World Title, passing Ric Flair at the top of the all-time list in the process.

But no matter what happens at WrestleMania, it seems there’ll be no rest for Rhodes.

Cody Rhodes Is Staying Busy

Cody Rhodes is set to head up a new podcast called “What Do You Wanna Talk About.” The project is the result of the increased collaboration between WWE and Fanatics. The new series will premiere in April, although a specific date wasn’t given.

Randy Orton and Bianca Belair were among those to appear on the podcast during its previous guise as a YouTube series in 2024.

WWE, part of TKO Group Holdings (NYSE: TKO), and Fanatics today announced the launch of “What Do You Wanna Talk About” hosted by Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, a podcast sponsored by Wheatley American Vodka. The first episode will debut later this month, with new episodes launching every other week.

“What Do You Wanna Talk About” will feature Rhodes one-on-one with WWE Superstars and Legends as they share never-before-heard stories, discuss their career-defining moments and more while enjoying their favorite cocktail from Wheatley Vodka, the Official Vodka of WWE made in the Heartland at America’s oldest continuously operating distillery, Buffalo Trace Distillery.

The podcast expands on the Rhodes-led digital franchise which launched in July 2024 and featured interviews with Randy Orton, Bianca Belair and others, as “The American Nightmare” traversed the country in his Wheatley-wrapped tour bus. New episodes will be available across all audio platforms and WWE’s YouTube channel, which has amassed more than 108 million subscribers.

It’s been announced that Stephanie McMahon will launch her own podcast on April 17. The debut episode of “What’s Your Story?” will feature an interview with UFC boss Dana White, and the project is said to be inspired by McMahon’s “Stephanie’s Places” TV series.
