Cody Rhodes: WWE Is In A Incredible Prolific Era, I’m Very Lucky To Be Along For This Ride

Cody Rhodes is happy to be a leader.

Since winning the WWE Undisputed Championship at WrestleMania. ‘The American Nightmare’ Cody Rhodes has had a whole new set of responsibilities and things to learn at the top of the mountain, an opportunity that Rhodes always wanted and has been excelling at every day. Rhodes opened up about having to be the new leader and how he is very lucky to be along for this new era for the WWE.

“It’s crazy. It’s a dream come true. It’s all you ever wanted, and for me, it’s what I wanted my whole career, but there are elements of responsibility that came with it, that I’m not saying I wasn’t mature enough or I wasn’t ready for it, but it’s almost like you become a defacto member of the office. That’s been a little different for me. One thing I love leaning into is the leadership element to it. The show really goes down based on what the WWE Champion is doing. For me, I like that. There are so many young talent coming up from NXT. I like trying to be a leader and I try to be a leader by example. Right now, WWE is in this incredibly prolific era. I’m very lucky to be along for the ride,” he said to Dayna Roselli on Vegas Revealed.

Rhodes will have a big mission to complete when he battles the World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther at Crown Jewel for the inaugural Crown Jewel Championship.
