Cody Rhodes has been walking his own path in the professional wrestling industry over the last few years, and it seems to be working out pretty well for him.
Rhodes and The Young Bucks are teaming up to present All In at the Sears Centre on September 1st, and it’s been confirmed that Cody Rhodes will be challenging Nick Aldis for the NWA World Championship at the event.
The NWA recently posted a tweet explaining the backstory behind the Rhodes vs. Aldis match, and it received an interesting response from MMA fighter Phil Baroni.
Phil commented on the tweet, and he took a shot at Cody Rhodes when he said that Cody sucks.

Cody fired back by saying that NJPW isn’t interested in working with him, and he doesn’t do online angles.
You're so sweet Phil. Your like 5yr long MMA to wrestling transition isn't working huh?
A) stop calling George Carrol. He's too afraid to tell you that njpw isn't interested. Nobody is interested.
B) I don't do online angles ya' fly by night human hatrack. Get the fuck out. https://t.co/jSiXqC7fNc
