Is Cody Rhodes the best wrestler in the world right now? Let us know in the comments below!
Nah bro it’s gotta be Daniel Bryan. He’s the best since Bret Hart. But Cody is a good Cena lol. HBK greatest of all time, and Triple H can lick my boots. Also huge Enzo fan over here lmao
Did y’all just heart your own pinned comment ?
Nah, Will Ospreay
No but he’s good and people like him.
Not even close. He’s an average wrestler but good character
“How am I off the ground”😂😂😂😂
Chris Masters said Shawn Michaels had the hardest slap in the business and that he knocked him and Randy Orton loopy. Shawn definitely one of those way stronger than he looks guys
stone cold said it felt like billy gunn broke his hand when he’d shake it 😂
Shawn Michaels body slammed Vader. He threw Yokozuna and Vader out at the same time in the 1996 Royal Rumble. He was definitely a strong dude for his size.
Chris Masters had one memorable moment in his career. Putting over bobby lashly
If you look at his muscles they look mad dense....he's had old man strength since he was in his 20's lol
Ppl just write him off because of the Buffalo thing, coming off on the wrong end vs Bret....Well, even if it was just one marine in Buffalo he might have been fried from party favors and Bret....is a borderline legit shooter.
Shawn took his craft very very seriously nothing wrong with that. We wouldn't have gotten the matches we got especially later on in his career like 2 back to back Taker matches if he didn't wrestle with that intensity
Shawn really is a stickler for having a great match. I remember when he would blow up at guys for not selling a particular body part like Cena at WrestleMania 23. He just respects the psychology of wrestling so much🧨😭
Sadly a lost art for many nowadays... *cough* AEW... lol
@@MorrisseyMuse People no selling an 8 move chain then selling the last move is so dumb to me
@@MorrisseyMuseYou think AEW put on worse matches than WWE? It’s a lost art completely, no exceptions lol
There was a reason Shawn was the best. He literally gave an eye for this shit. lol Sometimes you have to be an asshole. He didn't shoot the guys dog or sabotage his career. I think if Shawn says it there is a reason.
Shawn was special. In the 90s he was untouchable.
His in-ring work wad amazing but he's an asshole backstage though
It's actually surprising to hear Shawn act like that. Does he cherry-pick the people he thinks he can get away with, with that sort of thing? I've never heard any other story of him getting physical with someone like that.
As much as I like Shawn, there are a few stories of him acting like his old self around this time, when he had supposedly reformed. He seems to be a completely different person from that time to now. I think he was on his best behavior when it came to people like Undertaker, who he wanted to earn their respect, but as you said, with lower card guys like Shane Helms and Cody, he didn’t seem to care.
Him and Bret threw down. Shawn ain't no pushover..
Eh I'm not too shocked given the context. It was a PPV where a supposed up and comer who's also the son of the American Dream and brother of Goldust (Two incredible in ring workers) botched a super simple move that also happens to be Shawns finish. Not saying it's justified for Shawn to do what he did, but it's not surprising that he got super pissed imo
Shawn seemed to me like the person who took his shit very seriously and if anyone messed up he’s gonna let you and the back know it.
He's still the guy from the 90s underneath the born again
Question are you on a Permanent Ban from Interviewing Wrestlers currently .. The Constant Re-uploading old videos then sometimes because of your re-uploaded videos it starts drama all over again for certain Wrestlers.. 🤨
A fight at gorilla and people going about their lives after hearing about It?
Wow...
So I take it this interview was in 2018-2019
Ya
Description says December 2018
Yeah they have fuck all original content so they constantly rehash old interviews when the wrestler or wrestling personality in question is trending. They did the same for Paul heyman’s HOF and they reposted all the clips from his interview about 5-6 years ago
@@lukebrown5017 okay, but that isn't a bad strategy from a content creator perspective. Not everyone is going to be looking back and searching through years' worth of content from their portfolio. What's old is new again, as they say. Anyone bad-mouthing it just doesn't get it. I mean, we're all here, after all. It worked. Keeps them relevant while giving folks who may have missed the content an excuse to watch and helps to further promote all involved. It's a win-win.
@@OrphanHart I never said it was a bad strategy, if anything if they can do it and keep themselves relevant and create a steady income stream from an influx of new and old viewers more power to them
I’ll put it out there. This is what AEW is missing. Those real full time players. Punk tried to get them to do it but they pushed him out. Also the grind that triple H spoke of the osprey to great offense to ! It’s not there.
Wonder if Cody was scared for his life
What does he put in his hair to stay like this?
Doesn’t like pretend wrestlers but is friends with the bucks 😂
Was anyway 🤣
You can be friends with someone that has a trait u dont like. But yea legit 😂
Working you like the mark you are 😂
@@thornslow how’s it working me fool haha simply made a joke about his comment, seems like I worked you haha
That "Bro!" at 5:14 is the most relateable ADHD moment ever 😂
Wtf? What does that have to do with ADHD
Shawn Michaels was always a strong dude for his size. He body slammed Vader in 1996. He also threw Yokozuna and Vader out of the 1996 Royal Rumble at the same time. Even at this age now, I bet he's still stronger than most of the roster. Stronger than wimps like The Mysterio's, The Miz, Sami Zayn, Grayson Waller, Seth Rollins etc.
Kayfabe is alive
“Wimps” lmao
You do know that moves are executed by both parties, right? He bodyslammed Vader because Vader wanted to be bodyslammed and did his part.
Crazy story! Thanks for sharing this interview. Blessings to you all! - John 11:25-26
“Nothing offends me more than the pretend wrestler. The guy that wrestles two to four times a month.”
I see why he came back to WWE. 😆
if theres two things i learned from this video, its 1) Dont mess with Shawn Michaels, and 2) DONT Mess With Shawn Michaels
CM Punk "don't tweet it" then tweets it himself. The most CM Punk thing he could do. Always has to be the centre of attention
Cody is a very good wrestler and he's amazing on the mic 🎤 but Triple H is and ALWAYS will be my favorite wrestler
I am just happy about lil Cody’s new finisher. He just cries in the ring and the neckbeards tweet death threats to his opponent. NEW ERA woooo
lol he does cry a lot
Aew just crying about their rating
You mean like yo pops last night when he saw me with yo muma
@@mr.mr.4957aew is living in your head 24/7
@@theunknown7441 I laughed at this way more than I should've 😭
Most viewers (even hardcore’s) will say Cody is just an average wrestler… But those same people are people who don’t think Triple H is top 5-10. Wrestlers like Omega, Osprey, AJ, etc. are amazing athletes and can do it all in the ring. Yet, guys like Cody, Triple H, Ric, and Dusty can have a program with anyone and make it matter. That’s why he’s the best in the world. That’s why him and Roman will go down as the greatest rivalry of all time
Like cmon. He makes people believe that HBK picked him up like a child after explaining how HBK told him getting over is a full time job… Cody did this off television at a non WWE event to boost himself and the legend of HBK…. GENIUS level wizardry
Cody Roman is a legendary rivalry
At least Rhodes matured & humbled over the years.
Not a lotta wrestlers have done that at all.
Was he immature in his early years? He’s always been cool, my dad met him at an airport decades ago. What you mean he’s humbled over the years? Was he cocky as a loser jobber?? His character maybe matured, which thank God cuz he never interested me til he left
@@thelettern You know he didn't imply all the worst versions of "not mature" and "not humble" like you just did...from all the stories you hear from Cody himself, he always describes himself as immature at the time ("We weren't ready at the time, I mean Punk was, but I know I wasn't"). "Immature" doesn't automatically imply "90s HBK-immature" if that's what you think.
And the same logic can be applied to his cockyness, mainly how he promoted himself in all the years between leaving WWE and returning...from the top of my head, and not verbatim, I can just remember the quote "I don't know why we thought we could wrestle 4 nights a month with the same consistent quality as if we wrestled 4 nights a week" which was a clear message about his lack of humbleness at the time. And again..."cocky" doesn't automatically imply "90s HBK cocky" if that's what you think.
@@AgeofJP thanks bro! That was an excellent rebuttal. Great examples, very intelligently put. I take back what I said, although I am skeptical that the original dude who said this did NOT think about it as nuanced as you did 🤣 hope he does now though! I sure do. Well said
@@thelettern And thank you for this reply full of praise...with the way most youtube discussions tend to go, it's so refreshing and nice to get an answer that directly praises the thought I put into my comment.
Ngl, for an introvert like me this kind of reply can make a day...too bad I've had a genuinely good day today anyway, it feels almost like a waste to not read this on a bad day lol.
Anyway, cheers
The botch isnt on the tube BTW lol
Pho-Oh
Where was that energy with the harris bros? Lol
There's two of them and they are giants 😂😂
Well if the wrestlers would still what wrestlers did some would more be in jail than in the ring. So IDK wo says and makes the rule what a wrestlers has to do in is off time?
No offense but some unwritten rules sometimes seem to be weird and make no sense, even more these days. Don't get me wrong. Some of the rules will make 100% sense and exist for a good reason but some are there because at some point at some time someone said "Well that's what wrestlers do!" and everyone else followed, maybe because that guy was just higher in the "food chain" than the rest.
I just watched the Sweet Chin Music on Cody, not really sure how Cody could have done it any differently. Looked good and sounded good. Sure it was short but they were leaning on each other right before Shawn hit him with it. So not sure how Cody could have gotten any farther back for it.
90s Shawn is still in there somewhere
He’s still there he never left… he’s just older now and bald….
Cody Rhodes is a pretend wrestler lol
What!?
Da fuck you yapping about lol
How so exactly? He was an accomplished amateur wrestler in high school.
@@thetribalist6923 he said pretend wrestlers only wrestle 2 times a month that’s what Cody does!!!
@@ForestCityKitty my man what the hell you yapping about, you know how many house shows cody does💀”2 times a month” all lies.. he wrestles 4-6 times a week sometimes
You think shawn is strong? ***Hart Foundation music starts playing****
He can be strong but can’t fight 🤣🤣
@@carljohnson5301 He could beat up most of the current roster I'd bet. He'd easily beat up all the wimpy wrestlers like the Mysterio's, The Miz, Sami Zayn, Grayson Waller, Seth Rollins etc.
Its crazy how Rollins, Ambrose and Reigns weren't even on TV when this photo was taken but they still defined an entire era of WWE from 2012 to 2019 before guys like Cody, Kofi, Bourne, Ryder etc. These guys almost became a lost generation because of how good FCW and NXT were back in the day.
Not really it’s because most of those guys weren’t given the same opportunities, the FCW guys weren’t better than them by any stretch of the imagination, only thing was they were presented better that’s all
"Shawn can't fight" - every shoot on hbk BRUTHURR! - But cody got punked by a punk.
I’d hardly call someone with the balls to fight a punk…. A punk is someone who runs from confrontations or runs their mouth about someone else behind a keyboard…..
Or refuse to job and lose their smile
You're a special kind of guy huh? A veteran main eventer, in front of a group* of people, picked on a mid card guy.
I'd like to have seen Shawn try that with Batista...or Booker-T....or Jericho....or Angle....you wouldn't see it. Hell, I guarantee you Shawn wouldn't pull that on Cody in 2024. Guarantee it.
He picked on a small fish in no position to fight back. Yeah, a real bad ass.
The critical thinking on the internet lessens by the day.
@@theheartofpaddle lol picking on him? You wouldn’t have made it in the business that’s for sure. You obviously missed the part where Cody was taught a very good lesson which helped him grow. It s what mentors do, you are just probably thinking he should have pulled him aside quietly and tried not to offend him. Sorry bud, not everyone is a liberal pansy. Some folks respond better to in your face, matter of fact teaching. Cody didn’t even take as much offense to it as you did. As far as the other guys you mentioned….. not one of them were young greenhorns who thought they were already made…… Cody himself said he made the mistake of following Randy’s advice to act like his crap don’t stink. You are always going to be humbled by a vet in that business especially. It did more good than it did bad. Stop being so soft bro, you wouldn’t have done nothing about it had it been you either. Don’t lie to yourself.
I could listen to Cody tell stories for hours, he just makes everything sound so interesting.
You no your a punk when HBK picks you off the ground…
Damn if any wrestler did that to someone else that would have been an automatic fight… I would have definitely not let another grown man do that no matter what ranking they are… plus Cody gimmick sucked ass back then so I guess he was scared of losing his job…
Just imaginw shawn lifting u off the ground and angrily scolding whilst death glaring at u with his lazy eye!!! Imagine how frightening that would be!! The lazy eye alone would look like he is lookin at u like a madman.
"Punk was right.....Punk's always right...."
Cody’s a great literal and figurative story teller
Adrenaline in my soul
AEW made a huge mistake losing Cody.
Cody should create a move and call it, "End of the road". Also then, maybe make a move and call it, "Dead end". Just a play on his name. Just a thought....
