Cody Rhodes Wants To Wrestle On Raw And SmackDown If He Wins WWE Championship

Cody Rhodes sets expectations if he wins the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. 

Cody Rhodes will have another shot at the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion on Sunday when he faces Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 40. Reigns was victorious over Rhodes at WrestleMania 39, but Rhodes earned another title shot by once again winning the Royal Rumble. 

Speaking to Joe Tessitore of ESPN, Rhodes was asked what kind of champion he plans to be if he wins the title. 

“I said I’d like to be a champion who is present. What I mean, to extrapolate, present where Roman was not frequently there. I want to wrestle on Monday Night Raw and I want to wrestle on Friday Night SmackDown. I want to be a champion like the champions I grew up loving. Guys like Terry Funk, Ric Flair, and The Rock and Triple H. That championship defines the company and who is holding it; I use the term all the time; it’s really how I feel, I have wanted to play quarterback my entire career. I have played backup quarterback, I’ve got in for a few series, I’ve maybe played a full game as a starter, but I’ve never been the number one. Everybody in this match has, other than me. That’s what I really want,” said Rhodes.

While making the media rounds for WrestleMania 40, Rhodes teased the idea of changing the look of the title should he win. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
