Dave has finished his story
He sure did bro I laughed hard at this lol
Thank goodness
He should have a replica belt on his shoulder to sell this 😂
@@californiansniper2133be funny if he wore it on this interview 😂
😂😂😂😂 that's true 👍🏼
Mark Henry selling out Dave for the Cody undies is hilarious!
Mark with another epic heel turn 😂😂😂
@@Itsthecreative😂😂
There needs to be a round table of The Rock, Cody, Roman and Seth yeeeears down the line talking about WM40 and the build up and whatever they do next. Just a behind the scenes chat, would be amazing
Add Paul Heyman in that round table talk Roman should get a lot of respect because it was his title for ovef1365 days do you honestly think he was happy to lose his title that he had and made it to what it was
@@vickicarver56 Roman was definitely happy to drop the strap. Dropping it to Cody was good business which I believe he understands. Maybe only dropping to Jey would have been better for him personally but he's done alot for Jey's rise in the last 4 years. So it's a win win all through
Cody is that rare babyface that connects with both kids and adults, especially old school fans.
He's basically Bret Hart in 2024
That’s why I think he’ll get bigger than Cena ever was
He definitely is the first true white meat babyface since Hulk Hogan. He hasn't shown a single heel tendency since being back with WWE, which will make his eventual turn that much better.
@@graysontheginger right because WE KNOW he can be ROH/NJPW Homelander Cody Rhodes within a snap second
He doesn’t connect with me you crybaby! Every time I see him he’s crying
"Bully is not Palpatine"
"Yes I am"
Bully, never change.
I was all in on Cody during his Dashing days and always enjoyed him... I'm glad he's at the top of WWe riding high and I'm enjoying him. He's always positive and he truly cares about his fans! Great interview!!
Cody's interviews are simply incredible. I can listen to him for hours. The bond he has with everyone is unmatched.
😂😂😂😂 Bully is salivating at Cody being a Heel and he’s going to he one of the best that ever lived when it happens. To be a great Heel,you gotta get that investment as a Babyface which he is. Cody knows his story,which is refreshing in modern wrestling
Codylander is gonna hit like crack.
John cena would be another perfect heel. Cody aint got nuthin on homelander😂
He is the real heel who knew a match wasn't his but attempted to sabatoge and steal it.
@@tqueen7131 Get over it. The Rock tried to do the same thing, and it would have been a shit show. If Cody was able to outmaneuver him by taking his message to the fans, oh well. 🤷♂️ Dwayne can still have his match with Roman next year, it will have a better build and story, and everyone will be happy.
Nah his body can't make a dominant heel, perhaps a coward heel kinda Seth Rollins with the authority
I'm a simple guy. I see Mark Henry, I click.
Funny, Mark is a pretty simple guy too.
don't disrespect Cody Rhodes like that
Bully as well. Great guys
As it should be sir as it should be
I just finished watching him and Taker.
I can smell that slight hint of heel in him.
🤣
Okay bully ray😂
You have no idea. 💯
It's great to see Cody doesn't forget where he came from #codyrhodes #bustedopenpodcast
CODY CONFIRMED BEHIND THE CURTAIN IS FINISHED!!!!
It's so weird that they advertised it, and then never mentioned it again. You'd think they could at least let fans know what was going on instead of the wrestling sites writing vaguely worded stories on when it might be released.
They literally said it was dropping on Wednesday with no date
@@r3bel383 They specifically said "this Wednesday" in the promos.
Since we're comparing the story to Star Wars now...
Cody vs. Roman II - A New Hope
Cody vs. Rock - The Empire Srikes Back
Rock vs. Roman - Return of the Jedi
🤣🤣🤣🤣
if Cody wants after Jedi he needs to go EU or as far as season 2 Mando finale. Stay away from the rest 😂
Cody looks like Geese Howard the final boss in FATAL FURY for the NEO • GEO
REPPU-KEN!!
Looks more like Mayor Cody, Street Fighter 5.
Yhea i forgot about that guy!@DoctorLazers
I think that the idea of why he wears suits.
😂😂 mad he actually does
This had me in tears. I so wish I could be there in Kalamazoo because I live in Michigan. It would be a dream come true
Cornette needs to do a reaction to this
I loved when Randy Orton said that Cody has the most wrestling knowledge of anyone in the locker room-and that was before he left WWE.
Cody's a student of the game & true Pro Wrestling historian. 💯
I would expect nothing less from the son of the American Dream Dusty Rhodes.
You don’t have to apologize for that shit! You’re Cody Rhodes!! Hell yeah Mark! Couldn’t have said it better myself.
That's because Cody's too humble. Anyone who's ever interacted with Cody only have great things to say about him. But Cody does have that heel personality in him. lol 💯
I loved this too , I was cheering over here lol
@@TradeKingz73 Me being one of them.
Exactly. He earned his top guy status.
@@TradeKingz73 nah he's too soft
I can respect that Cody is a Traditional Babyface versus a “Cool Heel”. Its a throwback to Hulkamania and Sting and that tried & true Babyface that really died with Stone Cold’s rise. Its a reason a lot of guys cant get over as either now and just have to be in the grey
I mean honestly the Austin type of baby face is what ppl tend to like. It's a fan favorite who can also show some intensity. Cody doesn't show any intensity
@@JokerG16 Yeah the Austin model is the best it's a reason he was the biggest draw and the only time he got booed was when he went full heel in 2001 and even that was 50/50 that Hogan model is what Vince liked but the anti hero connects more with the people the every man figure it comes off more real Cody comes off as a heel to me who's trying to act like a good guy and the way he panders it doesn't seem genuine it's almost like he's working the people.
@@tyyrreekk9005 yeah he was really only booed in 01 when he was aligned with HHH and Vince…which i think the boos were mainly for them more so him since they were heat magnets and genuinely hated. but yeah the Hogan baby face model was good during that time when corny, goodie 2 shoe faces were acceptable, but it’s not really worked since then. they tried it with Rock, that failed. they basically forced Cena on us which didn’t work either, and then they tried it with Roman which failed too. It’s no longer cool to be smiling and kissing babies anymore 🤣 why don’t they get that?
i also heard Cody saying he’ll never turn heel again or something?
@@JokerG16 Idk why because even Hogan had to go heel when he was getting stale and booed and it made him better being a heel gives your character more life and personality so when you do become babyface it's bigger than ever it's what made Austin , Rock even Cena before Vince turned him into Hogan now image what Roman babyface run will look like and he would probably be an anti hero.
@@tyyrreekk9005 yeah Roman’s impending face run is gonna be HUGE. he’s gonna be the anti-hero/bad ass face. like you said, he had to turn heel for his face run to be great.. nobody likes the smiley face anymore lol those days are over
Cody is a literal product of the business. It's why he connects on all levels and why he is so loved. Rock, Orton, Usos, all of these men who grew up in the business, have tremendous respect for the business, and mastered their craft - you can see it in everything they do. Cody is the working man. Cody came from hard times. Cody earned everything and continued to earn everything. Salute to him.
Great interview Busted Open
The Rock returned Cody's watch that he gave everyone after WrestleMania. Confirmed by what he said ✅
So the Rock was being a prick?
@mrseaofweeds9946 No why would he want it? The guy literally attempted to sabatoge him.
Sometimes, I feel like I'm talking with kids. There is literal plenty of footage dating to September of last year of this being Rock vs Roman.
I mean, he knew 100% it wasn't his match but pointed at Roman to make the audience think it was. He then put on a sad face going against the script, this was con fjrmed by a writer even.
This made fans believe The Rock was abusing power and sabaotging him despite this match being teased since last September on Pats show. WM Is booked long ahead and Rock took time off for it all even.
His daughter recieved death threats because Cody lied to the audience in an attempt to sabatoge and bury The Rock for the match.
Why would the Rock want a gift from him? Open your eyes cause that type of behavior is shady for real
@@tqueen7131but why would they have Cody win the Royal Rumble if the plan was to have the Rock versus Roman at Wrestlemania? Does that make any sense to you?
Even if they were planning on Rock vs. Roman a year prior, they could've done that at any time, no title on the line (since The Rock was going to vacate it anyway since he would be off doing a movie) and done it at SummerSlam or a later event. Make your logic make some sense because your math isn't mathing.
@@celestialchill5892 Once again Punk has already confirmed he was set to face Rollins and so Punk would have likely been the winner. Punk got injured and Cody won. Cody should have faced Seth Rollins.
I feel like you aremt aware how many acee jobs have taken place at the hand sof Paul L but plenty of wrestlers wirh channels to tell you all about them.
@@tqueen7131 obviously with an injury they would've had to pivot, so why are you so angry? It's not like the injury was planned.
The best day of dave life 😂😂😂 got his cody..
🤣🤣🤣
The Dream is Proud
Cody is teasing the heel turn
Amazing interview. Thank you all.
Cody walking a thin line in that intro simultaneously thanking and mocking Dave lmao.
I love you Cody Rhodes 💗💗💗
Christmas came early for Dave 😂😂😂 so happy he got Cody on here
Cody heel turn confirmed
The Politician...doing what he does best...spin the narrative to suit his purposes. He is already a heel in my eyes...a lying, manipulative, phony snake. It's only a matter of time until this snake sheds its skin and shows his true colors...then the Cody fans will really cry.
Definitely hinting at a different side of himself in this interview.
No man damn
Not anytime soon.
It's closer than you think... @@Jeff_Pryce
Cody's story is what really brought me back to watching wrestling again I play WWE champions for years and kind of keep up with what was going on but Cody got me watching it again definitely the best babyface the company has had in a min
Outstanding interview, you guys!
This was very well done. 👍👍
This is the best. Lmao Dave... You're the best. Cody... he's the future GOAT without a doubt.
Cody's bringing "Old School" back!
Mark & bully & Dave did a good job on the show❤
How when despite learning Cody lied and sabatoged another wrestler they disnt even question or call that out. That's why most fans don't watch here.
But where’s the damn documentary
Loving that suit color, Cody.
The Nightmare Era!!!!
I love cody. The boy done good 👍
Anyone else here the breathing while trying to listen 😂
Nah, I hear it though
Lmao hell yeah 😂😂😂
21:28 Cody low-key asking Jim Cornette to manage him
omg someone get this to brian and jim to react to. imagine cornette and heyman on wwe tv in 2024 😂
@willbennett7993 Shut up and take my money
@@willbennett7993 we need it. But it NEEDS to be for Punk. The internet will be great if that did ever happen
@@willbennett7993 you send this clips to Brian email and if he busts and get his attention, he would have Jim to speak about it
Way to get Cody on!
Awesome interview thank you Cody.
i could listen to bully talk all day long
Dave is glowing during this entire interview
Ive been n always will be a Rock fan. When people were booing em i was cheering em. His final boss reminded me of his nation of domination but to a higher level. Id love to see a symphony make his song n make it sound dark soulslike
I can't wait to see that documentary. They shouldve never advertised for it to be out that week's Wednesday only for it to be delayed.
An eventual heel turn where he goes full-on Homelander would be so good. And, of course, the last 3 great heels who defined a decade (Punk, Lesnar, and Roman) all have one thing in common… bring in Pauly Dangerous!
This was great guys
I think I like this story:
Cody bring back The People's Champion, not the Final Boss.
That's sounds impossible but, if it happens, that will make the Earth shake
Cody is a fantastic wrestler his father would of been so proud of him 9. 44am in the uk
We love you Cody! ❤
Gotta love Dave and Don lagrecca they both tell it like it is as fans
The brick wall being him is still real to me
D$ammit! 🤣
Dusty was great and funny doing color commentary in WCW
We hope it's Cody Rhodes vs Gunther at Wrestlemania 41.
No we don't
Shut up dude. nobody want to see that
Shut up. nobody want to see that
Cody could still be the wwe undisputed champion and I am still very happy and proud of him as always will be and I just want to make sure that he knows that I'm always got alot of good respect and love and support for my sweetheart Cody Rhodes as well !!
Whoa 👆 ...Dave must be over the moon literally 💯 ..
Was happy for Dave for this interview
This was a great interview 🍿🔥. #codycrybabies #bustedopenfamily
DAVE is blushing the entire time
Anyone else interested by the fact that Cody said something along the lines of being interested in having a manager by his side 👀
Dave looking like Will Ferrell on the movie 🍿 ELF (I KNOW HIM I KNOW HIM) 😂🤣😂
Cody represents what a American is. 🇺🇲🏆
What nepotism and bitching when everything you want isn't guaranteed....due to nepotism? That's what he is lol
@@alexanderletzing6705 😂😂😂
Got everything handed to him
@@alexanderletzing6705he literally admits it is with his story. If it wasn't his last name he wouldn't be where he at .
@@alexanderletzing6705 Cody had to work twice as hard as everyone else to get out from under his last name & worked his ass to the bone for everything he's ever gotten. Cody changed his entire career path & changed the entire landscape of the Pro Wrestling industry. Know what you're talking about before making stupid comments. 🤦🏻♂
I 100% LOVE Mark Henry!!! He is such a wise man!!! Damn I wish I would have got in the business…… took a different career path when I got married tho! Love the show
Mark Henry is a legend man
Amazing 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
20:55 Dusty's Spirit stops in to say hello iz'a tell you!
3:10 to the knees is wild
So when is documentary of wrestlemaina 40 behind the curtain between rock and cody coming out?
A lot of people complain about the big W title but it really looks good next to Cody.
i nearly spat my spag meatballs when they talked about the undies hahah
Cody hinting at possible manager to help him maybe DDP
I had to play Cody’s theme before watching this
A couple take aways…
That documentary is around if Cody is talking about it
There might be a manager for Cody
Cody finished his story at WrestleMania 40. We want the Bloodline Civil War, between Rock and Roman! Cody can defend his title against someone else!
Nah, we don't need it
@@overcomerlaban The Rock came back to face Roman Reigns, not Cody. Cody has the titles and he can feud with Gunther! Hopefully, Roman will returns as a face. The Bloodline Civil War; Rock vs The Tribal Chief! 🔥👏☝️💯💰
If Logan wins, we riot
I agree with Mark Henry - people always say that so and so "just" got "lucky". But in order to be lucky, in most cases, you first need to put yourself in a position to get lucky. And that takes work. For example, you can't get a lucky punch on an MMA champion if you don't make weight first amongst other things like joining a local gym, signing up for an amatuer fight, etc.
yeah I mean Cena worked really hard he almost get fired in 2002 but his rapping caught Stephanie attention and she asked him to do that on TV which give the birth of Thuganomic Cena and it snowballing from there
I’ll be honest, Cody has a real talent for talking out of character while also remaining enough in character to blur the lines
It hits different when you have a Champion that is a huge baby face, good mic skills, and can actually Westle.
Alot of the big champs all have a few moves and can barely Westle
So it refreshing seeing Cody as champ. It feels legit
When Bully said truth I literally died of laughter!
I thought Mark Henry said that.. 😏
@@robnix4146 bully said it mark was laughing lol
Cody might hate everybody but he also loves all of his fans. I know this because he waits after every damn show to try and meet as many fans as possible. Say what you want about Cody. But he’s a class act in my book.
Cody is such a throwback to the old school babyface champ. Promoting house shows along with TV shows. Just an all around full package when it comes to being at the top of the company.
I don't know any babyface who sabatoges their ringmate
@@tqueen7131 “hE sAbOtAgED mY bAlD mAn! 😭”
Wwe views are down like never before he can't draw.
You just cannot hate Cody Rhodes , top champion definitely well deserved, hope he becomes a multi world champion
cody is so funny 😂
Love Bully im new listener and i have Sirius these guys are awesome
Oooo loooks like a wwe 24 is in the books.
If Cody knew he was supposed to face Seth at WM, why did he point to Roman at the end of the Royal Rumble? Did he go rogue? 🤔
Unfortunately this isn't the right channel for real questions. We all know he sabatoged the Rock vs Roman match advertised since last Septmeber on Pats show even but here they will pretend he's great and won't call him out for what hundreds of thousands are right now.
The main guy is his biggest Stan and the followers of this channel are mostly blind Cody supporters not aware of the evidence or pretending he didn't attempt to make the audience believe the match was his when it wasn't.
Exactly my question?
The original plan was Roman vs Cody and Punk vs Rollins but when Rock came back they was going to have Cody get injured and miss wrestlemania but when Punk got injured they turnt into Cody vs Seth again for the title since Seth needed a opponent backlash from fans change this and Cody got his original match while Drew got a title match when Drew was supposed to fight Priest so Drew really change shit around
Cody Rhodes is one of my favorite current wrestlers I'm surprised they did change the title design after Cody won
Mark telling it all! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Randy Orton would be the perfect bookend for both of the characters. Giving Randy another title chase and it will level Cody up by him slaying the Viper, killing the Legend Killer! 🤣
Cody gives off heel vibes to me. The corporate suit, how he sits, and talks like a politician. Makes sense though. American nightmare would be corporate whereas the American dream is more humble and blue collar.
The number one best thing Cody does for me is make me believe he's real. This is Cody Rhodes and he's brilliant.
Cody is a deserving Champion, still over as hell with the live crowds, and his run is only going to get better as time goes on.
Looking forward to Cody's heel turn
Mark Henry said there's no such thing as luck, only preparation meeting opportunity. Sun Tzu nods in approval.
Calling it now - Heyman to manage Cody later this year. Foreshadowing in video. Listen from 19:37 to 21:41.
Yeah, definitely! I was thinking the same!
Mark should 100% play a role in wwe he knows what to say how to say it when to say it.
Cody is on his way to being a GOAT
30:12 like triple H said "it aint fun and games for these guys" which is why the rock gave back the gift. Brock lesnar once said "dwayne taught me to be selfish if you want to succeed in this business" which is why lesnar respects the rock for that cos brock had to find out for himself how the business works just like how the rock did. The rock had a tough time coming through like mark henry stated in past interviews cos everybody was looking out for number one. Cody and this new era in the locker room didnt experience that. So giving the gift back wasnt a disrespect it was to show cody that you cant be soft in this game.
Hmm it's actually because who wants a gift from someone who literally tried to sabatoge you and who's fans sent death threats to their daughter of their lies? Let's he real here.
Cody knew it wasn't his match it had been teased Rock vs Roman since September last year on Pats show. Cody admits before Rumble he was told even but he pointed at Roman to make the audience believe it was. Then he was written a script to fix it and as confirmed by a writer he put on a sad face when he was not supposed to.
This was to again sabatoge and make the audience think The Rock stole the match from him when it was never his.
Would you want a gift from someone who did that to you? Highly doubtful and still The Rock pivoted and gave him the story and helped put him over because he's an honorable person and The Peoples Champion.
Still Cody was trying to actively sabatoge even in this video.
@@tqueen7131 😂 Stop. Just stop. Nobody’s buying the BS you’re selling. Rock tried a power play, and it backfired. He will still have plenty of opportunity to have his little dream match with Roman, and with a better story. If he had done it now, it would not have been very good as opposed to building the story for a year like it’s supposed to.
This Wrestlemania was one of the best ever because of Cody’s story. This was his time, and he took his shot with the fans’ blessing and support.
@@Jeff_Pryce you are what 10? Cause the proof is in the public domain I dont argue with kids so move on. Cause any adult would just look up facts instead of standing blindly defending. I mean a writer has also admitted he didnt follow script. He is admitting he knew it wasnt his match but you still are suspended in disbelief. Yea I'm guessing your a kid and that's cool ao please do not respond.
We aren't in the 80s anymore.
This new generation is a locker room of people who are on the same team and love the business. That old backstab mentality can follow Vince out the door.
@johnnysupreme5718 If that old backstabbing mentality that Triple H has been accused of by many is gone then why did Cody know it wasn't his match but attempt to make fans believe so and sabatoge someone? Why did he point at the sign and then Romanknowing it was not his match? Why did he go on Raw and tell the audience next week they will see what happened with his sad pouty face to set it up even more? Why did he go against the script he was given and put a sad face on instead of being a man and saying "hey I know you been booked for this match but I would like to somehow participate?" Cause that's what an honorable man does. They don't walk out and set up a sabatoge to make the audience think someone abused real power and stole something they didn't.
That's the exact same thing many people from announcers to ex wrestlers (Henry himself has spoken on I believe) have said Paul L used to do to wrestlers is attempt to sabatage and bury. Looks like the same Vince and Paul L mentality it always was.
Dusty got me looking to be a Cody fan, Cody made me one
