Former ROH World Champion Cody Rhodes Talks Possibility Of CM Punk Appearing On His Show
Cody Rhodes was recently a guest on the Pro Wrestling Illustrated Podcast, during the interview Cody addressed the rumors of CM Punk appearing on the 10,000 seat arena event he plans to run along with Ring of Honor sometime next year. When asked about Punk’s appearance Cody said that he could be a part of it if he wanted. Cody went on to say:
“First thing everyone said when this story broke was, ‘You’ve got to get CM Punk.’ I love CM Punk. The fans never gave up on CM Punk. If CM Punk wants to be part of ‘All In’, he can be part of ‘All In’. But I’m not putting it on him to draw those 10,000 seats. If we did have CM Punk, we would not tell you we had CM Punk. Unless we didn’t sell any tickets. (Laughing)”
Also during the interview Cody was asked about his earlier comments about Daniel Bryan being on the show:
“The main thing is, I want Dan to be happy and healthy. But I know Dan knows what we’re thinking and when we’re thinking. So if that’s something that, if we could, that would be a wonderful match. And I think it would be wonderful to do it for the Ring of Honor World Title, being that he has such roots with the company of old. The company today doesn’t look anything like it used too, so I think that would be interesting. But we are exploring all kinds of options.”
