Cody Rhodes speaks highly of Roman Reigns.
Roman Reigns reigned supreme for over 1,000 days until Cody Rhodes beat him in the main event of WrestleMania 40 Night Two to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, Cody Rhodes discussed his victory and praised Reigns.
“Roman, one of the things I noticed Saturday night, Roman showed up not like a champion ready to hand off his championship,” Rhodes said. “He showed up in the best shape of his career. He showed up as the best incarnation of the Tribal Chief. I don’t agree with how Roman was champion.
“We go about how we operate in the ring completely differently. But still, I’m proud that I beat him at his best,. I hope that I can be half the champion that Roman Reigns was. He was an exceptional champion for WWE, did a lot of great things.”
Cody Rhodes recently said that he felt like he leveled up with his win at WrestleMania 40. Check out his comments here.
