Cody Rhodes has been called one of the most well-dressed men on the WWE roster. However, his fashion choice this week on SmackDown didn’t sit well with a wrestling veteran.
Speaking during a recent episode of BroDown on Backstage Pass, Vince Russo called out Cody Rhodes for wearing a winter coat to the ring, noting The American Nightmare should’ve picked a different professional if he wanted to wear fancy clothes.
“Why are you wearing winter coat to the freaking ring? You can’t convince me that you’re old because when you took it off you were sweating in your shirts.”
He continued:
“Bro, if you, if you want to be a model, if you want to be in fashion shows, go be a model. This is a wrestling show. You just got stretchered out by this guy and you’re going to model a winter coat to the ring!” [41:11 onwards]
For those who didn’t watch the segment, Kevin Owens once again challenged Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Rhodes upped the ante by putting his title on the line in a Ladder Match.
Fans will have to wait to see which one of these two men will come out as the champion at Royal Rumble 2025.
