The current undisputed WWE champion, Cody Rhodes, is known for his unusual attire. After leaving WWE in 2016, he began wearing outlandish suits for in-ring segments and public appearances. Now it has become his gimmick, which is very different and unique compared to his counterparts in the company. However, the American Nightmare often faces criticism for his unconventional attire. During his recent appearance on Complex’s Sneaker Shopping, Cody responded to his critics bluntly.
Cody’s blunt reply to the critics
Cody Rhodes has embraced his suit-wearing gimmick very gracefully and he carries it well. However, since wearing a suit in wrestling as a performer is a new thing, he does face a lot of criticism. On the edition of Sneaker Shopping from Complex, Cody was asked if he plans to continue his suit gimmick forever. To this, his response was quite bold and straightforward. The undisputed champion stated that he’ll probably be a suit guy in the wrestling industry forever. “Anyone who I’ve ever worked with in the business who is intimidated by the fact that you wear a suit, I feel like they have a little d***, like clearly,” said Cody.
The Undisputed champion is set to face Sikoa at SummerSlam
Cody Rhodes has been careful with his presentation since adopting the suit gimmick. His blunt response to the critics shows his confidence in his style. He is set to face Solo Sikoa at the upcoming SummerSlam premium live event. Sikoa is determined to bring the WWE Undisputed Championship back to The Bloodline. Interestingly, the former Undisputed champion Roman Reigns is also speculated to return to WWE at SummerSlam, given the recent changes made in the family faction. Fans will be quite excited to see if Sikoa can dethrone Rhodes at SummerSlam. It is very obvious now that The Bloodline has introduced new members in the faction like Jacob Fatu, Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa; they will surely try to interfere in the title match to help Sikoa win, so the possibility of Reigns coming back is higher, who is rumored to potentially return as a Babyface.
In the episode of Sneaker Shopping, Rhodes showed that he is a big sneakerhead as he spent almost $10K on the fancy shoes like Nike Zoom Kobe 4 Proto, Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low, Louis Vuitton x Nike Air Force, etc. The total purchase of sneakers amounted to $9824.88. The American Nightmare showed off his exceptional taste in footwear by spending a hefty amount on these shoes.
