Cody Rhodes Wants To Bring Back The Scoops Hotline: I’d Drop Three Things, One Is Real

Call Cody at 1-900-909-9900.

During the Monday Night Wars, “Mean” Gene Okerlund regularly plugged the WCW Hotline to give fans all the scoops in the world of wrestling. Thanks to the invention of the internet, the hotline no longer exists and most information comes from social media and websites.

If Cody Rhodes had any power in the world of wrestling, he would bring back the hotline.

“Here is what I would love to bring back, and maybe you guys know somebody who could do this. If I had any smidge of power, I would bring back the hotline. I would absolutely bring back the hotline. You can now do it as a text line, essentially, but there were real scoops, occasionally, on the hotline. Or, they were vague enough to where, if you were a fan, you knew. ‘Oh, he’s talking about Big Boss Man.’ The hotline, I get it that it was a cash grab. ‘Pay X amount of money.’ I get that. Maybe we lessen that part to an extent. I would host the weekly hotline. I want to drop five things. Say I drop three things, one of them is real. You have to wade through it all. ‘See, you should be following the hotline,'” said Cody on WWE After The Bell.
