At this moment, WWE has two of the biggest babyfaces getting over at the same time against the same person. Fans of both Cody Rhodes and Sami Zayn are equally divided and want them to bring down Roman Reigns. But as Reigns has both titles, there can only be one person. Triple H strategically solved this problem by giving Zayn his moment in his hometown and the same thing to Rhodes at WrestleMania 39.
While we know what the fans think about the two, we have never heard either of them speak about the other’s success. Whenever either of them sits down for an interview, they talk about the only man who everyone wants to take down. That was until now, because Rhodes just explained in detail how he perceives the success that Zayn has been able to garner.

In his appearance on Out of Character with Ryan Satin, the host asked Cody Rhodes about his feelings about the hype for Sami Zayn. Rhodes said, “I looked at it as a challenge. Not a negative challenge. Sami’s doing amazing things, you didn’t just buy yourself some future spot.”
He continued, “You’ve gotta show people exactly what you can do. What a great problem to have when you have two strong characters. One of the worst things we can do, as a community, to put us against each other.”

Then, he points out the fact that Sami had his moment in Montreal where he got the closest anyone has ever been to beating Reigns. But then he remarks that at the Berkeley Center show, Zayn and Rhodes, both got massive cheers from the audience, which were massively different.
In the end, he adds that he would love to go one-on-one with Zayn in the future. But only if the opportunity presents itself. In the interview, Rhodes pointed out an important thing in that the wrestling community surely makes their views known, online or live.
Sometimes it leads to promoters changing their mind and sometimes not. But in the end, the only thing that matters most is if Rhodes can finish the story.
