After sparking intense discussions among fans over the weekend, the next WWE television showdown for Cody Rhodes has just been announced.
The buzz ignited after footage emerged of Shinsuke Nakamura launching a backstage attack on Cody Rhodes following a house show in Knoxville, Tennessee. Nakamura’s mist left Cody blinded, prompting security to swiftly intervene.
WWE Raw General Manager Adam Pearce took to social media to deliver a significant announcement about an upcoming clash between Rhodes and Nakamura. Pearce revealed that the two wrestlers would go head-to-head in a unique match on television.
Having previously faced off in an untelevised Bull Rope match at Madison Square Garden (which Cody Rhodes won), the duo is set to reignite their rivalry this Monday.
Adam Pearce announced that Cody Rhodes would step into a Bull Rope match against Shinsuke Nakamura—a stipulation made famous by his legendary father, Dusty Rhodes. This high-stakes encounter is scheduled for tomorrow night’s February 5 edition of WWE Raw.
Rhodes’ last appearance on TV was overshadowed by The Rock’s challenge to Roman Reigns for a WrestleMania match, causing a massive uproar among fans. The incident even caught the attention of mainstream news outlets like TMZ and USA Today.
As the WWE navigates the aftermath of the Rock situation, the focus now shifts to Cody vs Nakamura on Raw tomorrow night.
