Cody Rhodes has come a long way in WWE. From being ‘undesirable to the undeniable’ Rhodes has seen the ups and downs in the Stamford-based company. By virtue of his stint in several promotions, Rhodes has been able to rub shoulders with some of the biggest names, including his father, the legendary Dusty Rhodes. But The Prince of Pro Wrestling has named a surprise candidate as his choice of character for a chapter in his autobiography.

The said wrestler is a current superstar and has won the WWE Championship twice. Have you been able to guess the name already? Let’s find out.

Rhodes and Seth Rollins are undoubtedly two of the biggest names in the WWE currently. The two also have a rich history in terms of WWE storylines. The Visionary was Rhodes’ opponent at WrestleMania 38, where the latter made a triumphant return to Vince McMahon’s promotion after six years.

They faced two more times that year, at WrestleMania Backlash and Hell In A Cell, with Rhodes winning both times. As per data, the current WWE World Heavyweight Champion is yet to win a singles match against Rhodes in the WWE. The streak currently stands at a stunning 22-0 in favor of the 38-year-old.

Despite all the losses, Rhodes deems Rollins as an undervalued performer. Speaking to Chris Van Vliet recently, he said, “…If I ever write a book one day, a whole chapter will be about how good that guy is and how he’s super valuable to WWE, and he’s still undervalued, in my opinion.”

“Seth and I are not friends. It doesn’t look like we’re heading towards friendship,” he said.

One must be wondering how Rollins feels about it. Well, recently he complained about Rhodes and the privileges he enjoys in WWE. So, the feeling is mutual. But despite their differences, the two have always put up acclaimed matches whenever they have gone toe-to-toe.
