Cody Rhodes Disagrees With The Notion That He Was Used Poorly In WWE

Cody Rhodes has never been shy about defending how he was used in WWE.

A Twitter user commented that Cody, and his brother Goldust, were used “like crap for years.” Cody was tagged in the tweet and took time out of his day to respond.

I’d politely disagree. I was in a PPV main event by age 24. I was happy/challenged with the trajectory of my career there…even stardust. It stung but it was motivating to see guys pass my sparkly ass by, I saw what I was missing and went out and got it. Do the work. https://t.co/TPTMT3CQVC

This isn’t the first time Cody had defended where he was placed on the card. Back in February, the current NWA World Champion responded to a fan who asked if he believes NXT talent are held back on the main roster by Vince McMahon.

He doesn’t hold anybody back. A lot of times it’s hard for fans to accept that some of their favorites have a ways to go or that they become lazy after they get that first LE check. Stardust for example didn’t go beyond tag gold cuz’ I wasn’t improving & I also got outta’ shape. https://t.co/PJstDITaMp

Another fan tried to praise Cody for his attitude of not wanting to talk ill of his former employer. But that isn’t quite the case.

I bitch all the time bro ha and I’ve got my Arya Stark list, but there’s more angels working there than assholes. And the ones that thought they could snub me, look down at the floor timidly when I walk by. Daddy eats first. https://t.co/tZdVlWN0qC
