Cody Rhodes Addresses Criticism Of WWE WrestleMania 41 Main Event

After winning the 2025 King of the Ring tournament, Cody Rhodes is set to challenge John Cena for the WWE Title at SummerSlam.

WWE fans will be hoping for a better effort than their WrestleMania 41 headliner, which was roundly criticised for the quality of the action, as well as the finish, which included a run-in from Travis Scott.

During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, The American Nightmare addressed the poor reception to his 'Mania match with Cena, saying:

"SummerSlam, I don't wanna go as far as making any promises, but I can tell you the goal with SummerSlam is if people felt a certain way about WrestleMania, I will put that all on my back and take all the credit and responsibility for perhaps not feeling satisfied. I'd like to get 'em to the finish line with SummerSlam. Very much looking forward to doing this dance again".

Cody recently said that he was at the 'tail end' of his babyface run. Rhodes has not been a heel since he was a member of Bullet Club in 2018.
