Cody Rhodes is currently on the run of his lifetime in WWE. Unfortunately, his road to the top of the mountain took a major detour last week when he lost to Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns in the main event of Wrestlemania 39.Last week on Monday Night Raw, Cody Rhodes confronted Roman Reigns and challenged him to a rematch. When Reigns refused, Rhodes offered a tag team match instead. Reigns accepted this under the assumption that Cody has no friends, an assumption that proved to be true when Cody's tag team partner, Brock Lesnar, betrayed him and beat him up to close out the show.
Cody Rhodes Speaks To The WWE Universe
Tonight, Cody Rhodes addressed the recent roadblocks he has encountered in WWE. He expressed his disappointment in himself for losing at Wrestlemania and told fans that if they want to blame anyone for the result, they should blame him.
Cody went on to talk about how embarrassing it was to lose at Wrestlemania and have a rubber chicken thrown at him. What was even more embarrassing to him, though, was being betrayed by Brock Lesnar after looking to the Beast for partnership.
Cody then challenged Brock Lesnar to a match. He said:
It can be anywhere, any time, any place. But I know Brock Lesnar isn't here in Seattle. So Brock Lesnar, what do you say? Face to face, eye to eye, one on one, for the first time ever the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes vs yourself at Wrestlemania Backlash. Answer the call. -Cody Rhodes (via WWE Raw)
Though WWE has yet to put out any official announcement confirming the match, it's hard to imagine it won't happen. Nevertheless, fans will have to wait and see if the American Nightmare is granted a shot at the Beast Incarnate at WWE Backlash.
