The sounds were so deafening you could almost hear Cody Rhodes’ days as WWE’s top babyface coming to an end.
The Post’s Joseph Staszewski brings you around the world of professional wrestling in his weekly column, the Post Match Angle.
The problem for the “American Nightmare” is unlike the WrestleMania 40 leadup, where his “story” hijacked Reigns’ moment with The Rock, he is likely at a disadvantage this time.The fans’ biggest reason to be behind Rhodes is gone and — outside a feud with Randy Orton, CM Punk or a match on the John Cena retirement tour — Rhodes could become just a player in Reigns’ quest to restore the true Bloodline.
It may be over if Reigns is willing to have as meaningful an interaction with fans as Rhodes does, an area where the Undisputed WWE champion may be unmatched in the industry. Rhodes has known for a long time the fight he’s in with Reigns at the top of the company, and the benefit healthy competition can have on a bottom line. He likely also knows the uphill battle on his hands right now.You really have to love Kevin Owens being the most logical wrestler in the world, always remembering the past and the unwritten rules of the business.
Wes Lee needed a change of direction, and using his Rascalz brothers to spark his heel turn was brilliant. You almost felt it coming when the group hugged following their loss in their NXT tag team championship match. This feud needs to spill over to TNA programming now.
