Years of hard work and dedication had given Cody Rhodes the opportunity to accomplish his dream. WrestleMania 39 was the platform he could have completed his story. But unfortunately, he came up short of winning the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.

Despite having put up a tremendous fight, he could not defeat The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns at The Showcase of Immortals last weekend. It has been a week since his loss and finally, The American Nightmare spoke about it for the first time.

Cody Rhodes pours his heart out on his Instagram post

Getting an opportunity to accomplish your dream and not being able to utilize it successfully can demoralize a person. But that person is not Rhodes for sure. Though he was defeated at The Grandest Stage of Them All, the fire inside him for the WWE gold still burns.

The 6’2 star recently opened up about his feelings about facing the loss and stated that he still wants the WWE Undisputed title around his waist. In his Instagram post, he mentioned last Sunday didn’t go as he hoped it would and he knows his fans are upset with the outcome.

He added though he had a rough weekend; he enjoyed the whole last week. In his social media post, he thanked many names close to him. Some of those names are Brandi Rhodes, WWE, Triple H, The McMahon family, John Cena, Nick Khan, and many more.

In addition, the 37-year-old star also extended his gratitude to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. It was for letting him do the honor of inducting 15 wishes into the Circle Of Champions. Plus, he mentioned how thankful he is for his fans who attended the WrestleMania 39 show last weekend.

At last, Rhodes opened up about still wanting to be the “champion.” And for that, he would talk to WWE about his future in the company and which direction he would go next. This will happen at the upcoming Monday Night Raw, he wrote.

Well, keeping in mind that Brock Lesnar decimated ‘The American Nightmare’ on the latest edition of Monday Night Raw, the latter might enter into a feud with The Beast. His quest for the title may get put to a halt for a while. But as per his social media post, he will still try to get another shot at the WWE Undisputed Championship.

What will happen to Rhodes’ future in WWE? What will WWE decide for him? So many questions, but only time will tell the answers.
