You don’t have to like his Championship run but you can’t deny that he’s very likable and relatable. He’s just a dude who wanted to win for his dad, loves his family and is an OG gamer.
Exactly. Don’t understand what’s people’s issue with helping to win the one title the Rhodes family hasn’t held. These people don’t have a loving family and probably have a miserable childhood
This is why is hard to turn him heel, he is the heir apparent to Cena's run as wwe's public face, is hard for him to turn heel and how will it affect his PR events
@@s4xtt The difference is Cena was made as a kids mascot. Cody has the perfect balance to be appealing to kids and adults, mainly due to his intensity and raw anger he shows when he's truly pissed
This is the first time I've seen him list mostly modern(ish) games. The thing I noticed most is his top two are pretty firmly set in stone. You'll always hear MGS and you'll always hear OoT. Seeing Ghost of Tsushima (after just beating it myself) and RDR2 (which I love) was an awesome surprise.
NO I HOPE NOT,the wwe logo belt is way better than the small eagle belt,plus it reminds me of hogan and we don't need that,the ic white strap is what they need to bring back
yea i want that belt back....never been a fan of the belts with the big W in the middle that the rock introduced....it just looks too plain, kinda lazy
One of the many reasons I’m glad Triple H is the Booker he is. We would’ve never got that spectacular pivot if Vince was still calling the shots. Also have to show love to the IWC, even though they can be some of the most insufferable fanbase in pro wrestling at times. It was solely their influence that ultimately caused Triple H to change his mind.
cody was never slotted for the match at wrestlemania....cm punk was supposed to win the royal rumble and face rollings and the rock was supposed to face roman, when cm punk got injured then cody won the rumble and he was supposed to face rollings ....but the fans wanted cody to finished the story and they changed it to cody and roman
@@svekkapungyea the other dude is lying lmao. Cm punk was supposed to win a #1 contending match at elimination chamber to face Seth Rollins. Cody was always winning the royal rumble 2024 lmao
I never would have guessed in 2009 when I was 11 that Cody would become my favorite current superstar 😎 Love that his 1st item he talked about his lovely family ❤
Went to smackdown in my hometown of Greenville SC October 11th 2024 to AN AMAZING SHOW of these incredible men and women and who was there at the very end to shut the place down. THE NIGHTMARE OF GQ SUITS HIMSELF, THE HOMELANDER OF THE SQUARED CIRCLE, THE GURU OF GAMING, THE UNDISPUTED WWE CHAMPION AND FELLOW SOUTHEAST NATIVE CODY RHODES. So happy after all these years he did a piece with GQ his impeccable intellect and gentlemen swagger 💪🏾💪🏾👑👑.
Cody is the realest WWE superstar always don't hesitate to share his thoughts. And I started to think that his bus on fire has something to do with the rock storyline
Yeah. I’m one of “those people” who prefer Majora’s Mask. You could have just stated Ocarina of Time is your number one. No need to dump on my favorite game, Majora’s Mask. I think Ocarina is a masterpiece but I like Majora’s Mask for its complex system and ability to explore the other races. It’s unique and appealing to me. Anyway, nice to see you’re into video games!
cody rhodes was one of my favourite world champions before but after his top 5 video games, he might be in my top 3 favourite world champions ever. idc.
Those of you who think Cody playing video games is a surprise should see the bunch of WWE superstars who play games against each other on Up Up Down Down and enjoy it to the fullest, WWE superstars these just are gamers to the max.
I haven’t watched WWE in a minute. I should do that soon. This was the only sport 😂that watched religiously as child. I remember here in rural South Africa going to fetch the battery to connect to our black n white tv 📺.
9:57: I'd love to talk with Cody about games irl. For starters: 4: Goldeneye is a growing pain to reach Perfect Dark. THAT was the best. 3: Don't feel bad. Some people didn't even know there was a game called Red Dead Revolver that came first on Xbox lol 2: I challenged Elon Musk to a boxing match, no shirts and full length pants (instead of shorts) in a snowfield. I call it MGS rules. He has not responded 1: I'm hard pressed to disagree, but I feel like you can't discount Majora's purely on account of it being an "asset flip". The time loop gameplay BLOWS the original time travel mechanic out of the water. It's SO cool

Cody dropping the video game knowledge
WWE is gonna fine cody for not say WWE 2K 24 Lol
Randy Is Big Gamer Too😂😂😂😂😂Just Like Me 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
More like video game wisdom😂😂😂
his video game taste is immaculate.
indeed it is
I was surprised for not 1 WWE 2K games especially past or this year's
He truly has exquisite tastes.
It’s so rare to see someone today who doesn’t just play Fortnite and COD
No disrespect to Cody's list of Top 5 video games its great and RDR2 is awesome but RDR1 is better it just is LUH YEW CODY YOUR A ABSOLUTE LEGEND
I wasn’t ready for the “Majoras mask is like DLC dawg” 😂😂😂
It took me out as well 😂 my dude was ready to go to war as a stan
Dude was based af!!
It kinda was DLC
@@FenrirMontYou’re a mook😒

Stardust to Certified Hall of Famer, love you Cody Rhodes 👑
Dashing Cody Rhoades also
@@TrialzGTASand undashing
He’s not stardust anymore, it’s only Cody Rhodes
Legacy, Dashing, and Undashing were all amazing roles in imo. Stardust....yeah not so much.
Whenever Cody is asked about videogames, he always gives top-tier answers
true!

No he doesn't, he doesn't put the last of us
@@Perry-o5iif 1 you mentioned, its sweet.
4:01 Cody attempting to bring back the Winged Eagle belt should be the next story
He should've stayed with the WWWF title that he had at MSG.

@@kumodohaizi7234 Both titles are horrendous.
@@kumodohaizi7234 they would obviously do like the World Heavyweight Championship and make it modern.
Most likable Champ ever
Legit, I’m struggling to think if there actually has ever been a more likable champion.
@@Bman32xKofi was just as liked, his stint as champion just wasn’t that long
Cody is boring.
@@jdjefferson1323Here comes the twitter bloodline d riders.
Thats you bud @@jdjefferson1323
I love hearing that he's trying to get the Winged Eagle belt into the modern day belt. I love the look of that belt.
I wonder if he would say Tears of the Kingdom is a Breath of the Wild DLC. 🤣
yea i want that belt back....never been a fan of the belts with the big W in the middle that the rock introduced....it just looks too plain, kinda lazy
“Do you feel him, sir?”
Elite 9 day tag run.
"Majora's Mask is dlc dog"😂😂😂
Dawg😅
I mean ya I like majoras mask..but he isn't wrong
@@Zanoladab Lol "DLC" didn't even exist in those days. It's literally pre-online gaming. You could think of it as an "expansion pack".
@@ZanoladabYou’re a mook😒
so glad Cody finished the story, can't wait to see Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton! 🔥🔥
Cody Raheem Rhodes 🙌.
The African American Nightmare!
Ended racism
Lmao
Raheem
Do yall think brandi lets cody say the word
All hail 🙌🏿
Red Dead Redemption 2 his top 5 I thought I couldn't love this guy more.
10:12 yep cody rhodes has some great knowledge of video games
Wwe superstar instead of wwe champion is craaazy
What if they interviewed Jinder or jack swagger
@@MrVariousTopics "former WWE jobber Jinder"
The tittle coming off summer slam
Keep dreaming. @@israelz93

"Especially now that all my friends around me are balding I'M NOT"🤣
Dusty is looking down on his Baby Boy smiling!
Both of them. Dustin and Cody are each legends in their own way.
@@zlinedavid theyre midcarders
@@thebreadmaker47-h4qa mid card world champion? How impressive
Cody always shows love to Bullet Club
🤘
You know what they say, “Once you’re in the Bullet Club, you’re in the Bullet Club f-f-f-for life!” 🤘💀
JUST
TOO
SWEEEEET
Always, remember when he did the too sweet sign then a pistol celeb after he won the Rumble? A nod to the BC and the Elite!
Well , I Didin't expect that one
And the Rock just came back and decided, oh I’m just gonna take the match Cody was slotted for😂😂

Cody always looks sharp in those suits
facts
Obviously the tenth item is a cigar 😂 Classic Cody
And then they show it uncensored sitting there at the very end like, wtf.f
Cuban cigar
Idk what I was expecting but bro is literally just like us. Video game knowledge was the best part.
Cody's top 5 games peak I can agree with every single one of them
true!
Especially close up to Shima my coryxkenshin has no
Took a minute to find the video on GQ, but that last item they didn't show was Cigars.
Expected, so american.
Bro you can literally see them unblured in the final shot of everything on the table, front and centre lmao
Cody has his own brand of cigars lmao
@@justflavio3260Its actually the Cuban part of him. His mother is Cuban.
Where did you find it? I tried and didn't find it.
this has to be one of the best episodes. not covered in ads and you get to genuinely know a little more of the person.
love that boy stardust!
Happy you made it on GQ Sports. Hope to be there myself
Ngl the hair is flawless bro
My dude Cody’s everywhere 👏
And the fact that he brought up RDR2? 🔥
12:06 bro is 100% homelander 🤣
6:25 CODY:"HAHA IM NOT"🫥
Absolute star. Gotta love the Codester
@@jayandrews807 Star?
9:13 I was going to call BS on the entire video if his love for exceptional video games was cut out.
I was not disappointed!
Cody Rhodes is just absolute class👌👌
THATS MY UNDISPUTED CHAMPION BABY
My dad and I always wondered what Cody used for his hair, since it never gets messy during a match. Glad we now know what he uses
Dang Cody! That’s a pretty elite video game list! I’ve got RDR2 at #1 but respect!
True professional. Definition of a champion in sports! CODY is a real American hero
Dashing cody rhodes was my fav times.
I never would have guessed in 2009 when I was 11 that Cody would become my favorite current superstar 😎
Love that his 1st item he talked about his lovely family ❤
I'd do anything just to see Cody Rhodes with a Ghost of Tsushima inspired ring attire
Im the biggest cody crybaby
I am we both are
Nope i am
I am
Me too
I refuse to call us Cody Crybabies
At first I thought they played the King of the Hill theme
The Rolex story is so beautiful.
Cody maybe has the best list ever! A lot of sentiment in his list. Great list!!
No matter his technique or playing skills, his gameplay videos are definitely needed.
I love how Cody is incapable of mentioning Ocarina of Time, without going on a tangent "Why it's better than Majora's Mask"
Massive fan of Cody, easiest guy to root for ever
I Can Listen To Cody Rhodes For Hours Because Of The Way He Talks. He's Such A Professional Dude. 👍🏽
Cody Rhodes is legend just like his dad and brother
Cody Rhodes ,, I don't have time for big games like Elden Ring "
Also Cody .... ,,My top game is ... Ghost of Tsushima " ......

He should be playing a live action version of dmc's virgil.
I love Suavecito hair products too. When I had my hair as short as his, sometimes shorter, I used it.
“Incognito hat” while the dude has the most recognizable and unique placed tattoo in the entire world. 😂
cant forget about when cody had Triforce wrestling boots!
I think It would be awesome if AJ Styles got an episode of this too.
If he was a heel, he could be Golden Rhodes, homage to his dad and brother. Hes a world champ, and brother was Goldust.
"I'm Not." the dashing one still lives within.
he’s like a GI Joe Ken hybrid in the best way
The perfect character for Ryan gosling to play in a biopic.
Yeah he’s definitely going to run for President one day for sure
Homelander Cody is gonna be so fire
The video game section has officially made me like this guy
I did manage to see through the pixel blur at the end and those were the nightmare’s cigars
Never thought I seen the American nightmare with a cigar
I love Cody Rhodes, He's father must be so proud of him. Best Champ ever
He knows his video game . RESPECT
Cody Rhodes is on top of the world as WWE CHAMPION!!!!!!
In that suit i can’t unsee the mix of the Laytown characters
Cody is such a poised and outspoken fella i love his presence the wqy he dresses the way he speaks
Cody is the realest WWE superstar always don't hesitate to share his thoughts. And I started to think that his bus on fire has something to do with the rock storyline
Cody is goated🔥🔥 how can u hate this guy?
Cody Rhodes keeping kayfabe alive 😂
Codys the goatttttttt
😂
One of my favourite wrestler
Dude even quote Zelda during his time in AeW.
It feels like only the game part is real while other is just a product placement made by them.
I love the story behind everything!! They are all purposed
RDR2 and GoTsu both perfect games. Solid taste, Cody

I watched that ROH Cody Rhodes Bullet Club promo and cried. I was so happy when he and Brandi bet on themselves and made their own way.
The haters will hate.
Hopefully Cody's run goes well even though it has had a slight bump on the road.
The cody rolex is beautiful everytime
That title beauty is on another level ❤

You can the the last item is a cigar in 12:33
No duh
now he is popular and world champion in future he can be big hollywood star.
About time "Dashing" Cody Rhodes made it to GQ
Glad to see Vergil was able to move past his obsession for power. Hope you and Dante burried the hatchet too.
Cody Rhodes, bay bay!!
I met Cody in 2016 in Brooklyn and took a picture together. Such a nice guy.
Mr Raheem Rhodes himself.
😂
I love how he changed the topic of the video to his top 5 videogames list without being asked for it
cody rhodes as a gamer
