Cody Rhodes Says The American Dream Lives, Writes Inspirational Post About His Dad

Two years ago at Battlground 2013, The Rhodes Family took part in a pretty awesome angle involving The Shield. Tonight Raw returns to Buffalo where the match took place and Cody Rhodes decided to write a wonderful post about his father called “The Last Bionic” elbow. It’s an excellent, but emotional read. You can check out the blog here and read the final paragraph below.

“As I wrap this up, I want fans of his to know…we had a memorial service for Dad. A memorial service, not a funeral. I wouldn’t…my family wouldn’t allow that. Because what he stood for isn’t gone. How he stood for it isn’t gone. The idea that you can do anything, no matter what deficit you begin at…that your critics and naysayers can stand in your way…but you can clench that fist and raise it to the sky and deliver your own “Bionic Elbow” and keep moving down your path. It’s not an idea, it’s a dream. Virgil Runnels passed away. “The American Dream” still lives.”
