Cody Rhodes has been one of the top stars in WWE for years now and he is the current Undisputed WWE Champion. The American Nightmare is clearly invested in his work, but it seems that there was one segment that got him a little heated and led to him losing his cool backstage.
During a recent conversation with Ariel Helwani, Cody Rhodes revealed that he had a bit of an outburst backstage, and he recalled that it was due to an F-bomb that was dropped in the ring.
“I had a bit of an outburst backstage, which shockingly didn’t get reported because it seems like everything gets reported. When I say outburst, it’s just like me muttering some curse words on the Christmas Story, and yelling and knocking over some water bottles à la Sami Zayn. Nothing too intense. But I remember getting to my bus and thinking, ‘Yeah, you outgrew that.’ I don’t need to be having temper tantrums, I need to be helping provide solutions.
“It’s probably such a non-factor. I think it was an F-bomb being dropped in the ring because I’m genuinely a goody-two-shoes, whether people like to believe it or not. There’s really no room for those on our shows because we get blacked out. Not only do you think you’re saying something cool but they black the feed out in the States so you’re missing the show. And we’ve got kiddos in the crowd. Their first experience with the F-word does not need to come at a WWE show.”
