Cody Rhodes May Soon Turn Heel To Target WWE Legend
One of the big buzzes in the WWE world right now is whether Cody Rhodes will turn heel.
The American Nightmare is set to receive a major title opportunity on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, where he will challenge Drew McIntyre for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
The storyline surrounding the Undisputed WWE Championship is extremely heated right now and features several major names, including Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, Jacob Fatu, and Drew McIntyre.
With so many top stars involved, there are numerous possible directions WWE could take as WrestleMania 42 approaches.
Cody Rhodes And Randy Orton To Feud Over Undisputed WWE Title
Recently, a fan asked WWE analyst Sam Roberts on Notsam Wrestling to weigh in on the current storyline. Roberts suggested that WWE could be setting the stage for Cody Rhodes to turn heel, potentially targeting Randy Orton and igniting a heated rivalry over the Undisputed WWE Championship.
If you want Cody to be the champion going into WrestleMania, you already have a Cody title run. And the idea of putting the title back on Cody for six weeks, and then he loses it again. I think that if Cody is gonna turn, everything that you just said justifies Cody turning. I want to see Randy get to 15.
I don’t want to see Cody have another run. I want to see this. I don’t want to see that. Well, guess what? That all leads to this. And then you can tell this story of Cody being a villain, and maybe it takes Randy until SummerSlam to get that title from Cody Rhodes. (From 1:04:36 to 1:05:27)
