Cody Rhodes was asked about the allegations against Vince McMahon at the WWE Royal Rumble post-show press conference.
During the WWE Royal Rumble post-show press conference, Nick Hausman of Haus of Wrestling asked Cody Rhodes about his reaction to the report and what he thought should be done to prevent similar situations in the future.
“That’s a great question. I know as far as the news is concerned, we were finding it out and reading the same things that you guys were reading,” Cody Rhodes said. “You said a dark cloud, it’s certainly….As far as TKO, Nick Khan, the board clearly took it very seriously, acted immediately, and looking at the future, I don’t know the answer to that. I think somewhere is probably a basic tenet of just, this crew, more than ever from a roster standpoint, is very family. Never seen anything like this.”
Cody Rhodes Wants To Give The Fans Something Positive
Cody Rhodes then highlighted how the WWE locker room is team-based, as they look out for each other and hold each other accountable. He went on to state that he has been in dark periods of the industry before, and there is something “reinforcing” about giving the fans something positive amid a terrible situation.
“Most of the time, wrestling locker rooms, you fight, talking trash about each other, making fun of each other, sand-bagging each other in the ring, all that nonsense,” Cody Rhodes said. “This crew is very team-based.
“Perhaps that’s the ingredient, is everyone looking out for everyone, being accountable. I know, for me as a performer and competitor, I’ve been dark periods in our industry before, and it might sound cheesy, and it’s very reinforcing, if you’re in my position, that it’s a time when, hey, we fit 50,000 people out here, I want to give them something else from this weekend, that isn’t a terrible situation, terrible news. I think we were able to do that. Obviously, as more news comes out, we’ll be seeing it just like you do.”
