Would just like to thank AEW for giving us one of the best WrestleMania's of all time, they couldn't have done it without you guys.
😂😂😂
I was at ALL IN and Wrestlemania
FACTS 💯
QUIET
"You wanna ask why I won't turn heel? Because you cheered for me when I needed the most" Man that's the best justification one could give.
"Somebody told me to save this promo but I honestly don't know if I'm gonna get the chance so I'm gonna do it now."
He gave us a hint right there that he was leaving.
Right!!!! I watch this live and it never crossed my mind that he could be leaving. He even said “maybe it wasn’t the contract i wanted” and I still Didn’t put two into together until now 😩
💔💔
Lots of hints in this for sure.
Great mic work. They will miss him if he goes away. Maybe that's what is needed.
Looking back at it. Cody Rhodes looks like a genius for stepping away when he did
And called out Punk months before he poisoned the locker room and made a mess of AEW
@@tarndipkhera946 that only happened in your delusional mind , punk did nothing wrong , the elite and hangman did but karma eventually did it's work
can you explain?
Not really.
Very true
The fans wanted to hate this so much and he just won them over in the span of 7 minutes lol, dude is an enigma
He is THE REAL AMERICAN DREAM
Looking back now, it's wild that the AEW crowd hated him this much and he came back at WM and got that ovation. This is coming from a hardcore AEW fan btw
It’s not wild his character sucked lol
@@russellbaker7104 Who cares about his character? You pieces of trash booed a man who did everything you asked him to do. You wanted more prof wrestling and less sports entertainment? He gave it to you. You wanted long term booking and not shows rewritten 10 mins before air? He gave it to you. You wanted a true alternative to The E, and guess what? He GAVE it to you, and you booed him. Glad he left you.
@@KoolKeithProductions preach!!
@@KoolKeithProductions its part of his character 🤷♂️
@@KoolKeithProductions highly disagree
In one promo, he promoted not only himself but CM Punk, Young Bucks, Jay Lethal, Malakai Black, Brody King, -1, and TNT title. He basically promoted Everything in 7 minutes. GOAT.
@isthatyoubetha Then I recommend you to rewatch this video with audio this time😉
@@moontart5536 It is some dumb troll.
I loved the -1 shoutout, especially when you know Cody is one of Brody Jr's favorite people, let alone favorite wrestler (besides his dad). Imagine being a kid that age and getting shouted out on national TV by your favorite wrestler.
I can’t wait the 8 years or so for the -1 build to payoff.
@@raevir lol
Crowd went from “shut the f*** up” to cheering his name. Gold.
Glorious
I think they were chanting that to the heckler.
I can't stand when the crowds do that shit. Shows that they don't know what they want either.
@@glorbogwhich is why you can’t take any of them seriously they make themselves look like fools and idiots
@@glorbogI want you though 💝
Everytime something blows up backstage I feel like this Promo changes meanings it's insane.
Yup, Cody saw it all coming, including FB throwing AEW of course
Just did again today.
This promo the more time passes the more it felt like a warning from coey
Cody*
Still relevant and during Codys music no less
When you go in booed and leave the ring cheered. That’s impressive.
i get booed on youtube
@@AxxLAfriku Booooo!
@@Stumme-40203 lol chill😂
You know the IWC composes a majority of the crowds at major wrestling events, so they see all of the shit about Cody and they boo.
Then they see Cody in front of their faces and are reminded he is one of the best promos on the planet.
Big show could do that 3 times over in the first minute 😂
People need to start putting Cody up there as one of the best mic workers in the industry. He cut a whole 7 minute promo and every word was delivered with passion, intensity and precision.
The good thing about Cody's promos is he references his real self as opposed to his character and gimmick. The problem comes though where a lot of his promos come across as very self important and conceited. I can forgive some of that self importance if it were his gimmick but it doesn't seem so. How many of those promos are his real feelings? Probably a lot. This is the first of his promos in a long time where it's tolerable. I'm damn impressed by it but there's a fair few wrestlers who have the gravitas and charisma to say a lot of things without shouting it for effect like Cody does.
Hell yeah!
Yeah and that lisp makes you hate every word he says. I can't stand to hear him talk. This was real that's why it was so good. You want to see what people think of his promos listen to him get booed I'm his hometown. He over acts and he thinks hes way better than he is. He thinks the business owes him something because he made a company for guys who couldn't make it anywhere else.
Especially he has lisps worked hard from his ovw days
@@getupstairstobed you call it self importance. I call it speaking facts. He built this company. Now he's going back to the other for some unfinished business
Knowing this is the context to what would become his Wrestlemania debut makes this incredible.
Return actually.
Even more incredible now 😂
Who's here after Punk and Cody face off on Raw tonight?
All I could think of is Tony Khan prob needed a therapist after seeing that segment on Raw
I came here for that and also what just happened on Smackdown….. I feel like Cody’ll be back in AEW sooner rather than later 😢
@@RandyOrtonrulez1000 idk he seemed lost there bc AEW in terms of identity wasn't what it was in 2022 when he left compared to 2019 when it all started.
@@ckludecke he was only really lost cause he refused to be anything but a Super Cena knockoff, maybe if he'd gone full Homelander he'd have a better go 😢
@@RandyOrtonrulez1000 great point
Damn Cody is gold! He has it all. The looks, the charisma, the bad mouth, the classic and innovative in ring moves, the style. He really became the total package.
He doesn't seem like he's Lex Luger
@@mrgbulldozer1384 Nice one 👌
No he is average,a mid carder
He spent alot of time with the old man before he passed away....you can tell dusty told Cody about his mistakes as a Booker, a champion ,a up and coming talent ..you can tell he listened
The bad mouth?
In hindsight this really sounds like Cody unloading all his biggest gripes before leaving
This was such a good promo. That heckler in the crowd was annoying but that didn't break this.
They threw his ass out lol
@@allforgreatness9883 should have socked his 🐽 too.
@@allforgreatness9883 why? They paid to be there and should be allowed to voice their opinions
@@poggerwhite So did all the other people who didn't pay to listen to them.
Absolutely unnecessary promo. It was better to make the match of PG Punk and Spears longer.
Cody knows how to work the fans, and he did it so well. They went from booing him during his entrance by the time he got to the ring initially, to instantly cheering him when he started his promo. It's brilliant!
I can still hear the booing and heckling!
@@Dazzer-gx3yl just 3-4 marks trying to get themselves over
@@Dazzer-gx3yl I was there it started off with more heckling but by the end of the promo there was a LOT more cheering than heckling and booing.
I clearly heard stfu quite a few times during the entirety of that god awful promo
Cody is great
If you're here today, you know what happened. Undeniable. The Nightmare has become The Dream. Thank you Cody. Thank you AEW for making this man truly Main Event.
Now Undisputed
Here again after watching Cody's win at WrestleMania,man time sure flies,people change 🙂
Happy for him no matter what!!
This promo hits a little different now 😅
@@KaijuB9k yeah 😅
his new theme should start with "wrestling have about 900k idiot fans" referring to 900k aew fans.
@@aadityasharma6855 lmao
Cody's top notch, no matter the naysayers, professional to say the least, even with the drunk hatred with in the crowd, he definitely killed this promo
nah sayers
Let's go Cody!
Neigh sayers😂
They are just horsing around
Neigh sayers is a good word for horses.
Naysayers.
"Someone told me to save this promo but I honestly don't know if I'm gonna get the chance, so I'm gonna do it now"... Well that says a lot now with the news of him leaving AEW today. What a 180 of events!
Yep, I wouldn't say that he knew for sure he was leaving when he cut this promo, but I think he had a pretty good idea.
We going over this like the Zapruder Film.
Heel turn went back, and to the left.
Vince going to change his name to Cory Roads
@@Travdust Colby Street
finishing move: sidewalk slam
ring attire: road construction worker vest and hard hat.
:/
@Buddha Indian WTF does that suppose to mean?
1:30 STFU Chants
3:39 Cody chants
This shows how amazing this promo actually is!
The STFU chants seemed more like a guy just being an asshole all night rather than a reaction to Cody.
@@SteadyEddyyy No go at 1:22 then you would hear them clearly
5:46 one dude waits for the pause then yells it alone
2:00 Cody sux chants
People were chanting Cody’s name for his company contributions. Cheap pop of appreciation for the man. The character and this segment was mostly boos otherwise.
That was one of the quickest walks up a wrestling ladder I’ve ever seen.
And he did it with NO HANDS, simple amazing
He did this dressed up to.
Everyone at the time of this promo: “This is confusing and makes no sense.”
Everyone now after the CM Punk presser: “Wow everything Cody said in his final AEW promo makes sense now. He was right all along.”
hahah its wild. even the views went up. honestly its a tragedy whats going down.
Exactly what i was going to say lol
me as wrestling fan, realise after 8 months
Yeah the only good evp left.
Tony missed the boat keeping the other 3 instead
With the exception of a few key points most of it still doesn’t make sense
The promo was that damn good, he had them chanting for him again, if only for a moment.
Best promo of his career
2nd i think
After his jericho promo before full gear 2019
The promo he cut before full gear is one of the best of all time
It's about the FOURTEEN YEARS IT TOOK ME TO GO FROM UNDESIRABLE TO UN-GODDAMN-DENIABLE!!!
One of he best two promos in Aew was delivered by Cody & Mox in Dynamite, wow.
And this is why you dont script promos!
@@Raddon Yep 👍
Not just in Dynamite... in one Dynamite
💯!!! 💪💪💪!!!
Agreed both were on point and they were in same show..!
Cody is bigger than AEW will ever be; he’s transcended the business
He had a lot of talent in AEW but the fans didn't give him a chance
AEW hasn't been doing so good without Cody lately I wonder why?😂
Even Dominik mysterio is bigger than AEW
Cody is gold, he's playing the fans and they buying it.... fantastic
Cody is midcard for life
Exactly, the man is a master at his craft
@@tirasgo F*ck No
@@tirasgo definitely man
K but what are they doing with Miro. They made a beast out of him and now he hasn't really done anything
This promo is so off the rails, insane and wonderful, a perfect final promo for Cody in AEW, love that guy
Cody is the only man to have a 5 star match as both his debut for a promotion and his last match in a promotion. Dude's goated as of late.
And his first match of 2022 was 5 stars and if he doesn't return till Jan 2023,his last match of 2022 is 5 stars
Meltzer isn’t god. There are more 5 star matches than the ones he credits.
Because meltzer is an indie mark
AEW treated Cody like shit... Now they bow to him, while he runs his kingdom.
Yes indeed DJ, but wasn't goated just as of late, Cody has built a HOF Career because if any Wrestler can do that, then THAT Wrestler is a very special Wrestler. Not ONLY that but he practically wrestled EVERYWHERE before building a Wrestling Promotion with Tony Khan by taking a challenge & risk with Dave Meltzer & then pulled it off. That takes BALLS! Cody did it so Wrestlers had another option to feed themselves & their families, get under the light & perfect their craft on TV. Cody owns his own Wrestling school that's a feeder School to ALL Promotions as well. Cody Rhodes has Wrestling brains like his Father & is a different breed of Wrestling talent, Cody knows the Wrestling Business inside & out & is a very special talent.🙏
The comment of Tony sending him a contract and not the contract he wanted really hits home now.
Cody is an amazing promo guy, he is one of the most interesting character in pro wrestling, i'm loving this side of him 🔥
This is one of those kind of promos that people will remember forever!
I know alot of folks hate on Cody, but this is what I call putting your resume and your legacy on the table for a promo. He is 100% correct. He praises pro wrestling lore with the Punk promo, and alludes that to the connection to his bar bet with Meltzer, the All In PPV that changed the way wrestling fans saw pro wrestling, put the first serious crack into the McMahon Empire, and how the stars aligned with Cody, Kenny, The Bucks, and Tony Khan himself to create this beloved promotion that brought us out of the darkness and gave us back true professional wrestling. If it wasn't for them, we'd be subjected to lazy, lethargic, malaise, piss-poor creative decisions that exploded in a World War 2 historical fatal self-inflicted wound negative way last night for that Connecticut excuse of a business. For that, I will never boo this man, or the Elite, or Tony Khan, or AEW. They saved professional wrestling at a time when most of us gave up on this sport. That deserves our respect and our gratitude. They dont see us as minions, but as fellow pro wrestling fans. That is the difference right there folks. Say what you will, but I stand by my words and my stance. Here endeth the lesson!
But the question is... cAn tHeY cOeXist?
@@JibzCastor 🤣
First Mox, then cody, and now this comment. Great stuff mate.
This comment!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Despite him having already one foot out the door, Cody put people over in his last promo. The man deserves all the success in the world.
If you pay attention to it. This seems like the AEW version of The Pipebomb. Such a Masterpiece.
Dam
looking back now, u not wrong
@@toosweetbill9685 Yeah bro. We are witnessing history.
This aged very well! Good call man
@@paynetony_ Looking at this promo your not wrong basically Cody is saying he set up the table in AEW that he knew now he never be able to sit in and in a way he’s right my respect for Cody has went up 100% because looking back now at Cody’s AEW run he got 3 of the 4 horseman over brought prestige to the TNT title tried to be a bridge between AEW and the mainstream was the one of the few that actually presented himself as a star when AEW started was a big factor backstage you can see the difference in booking especially now that Cody’s gone he met a lot for AEW
Tonight. Cody got to say everything expressed in this promo directly to Punk's face and it was 🔥🔥🔥
It's a supershort version
"Maybe it's not the contract I wanted..." Hits a lot differently now.
This promo put the whole company over literally nearly every note worthy program happening at the time was mentioned and he put everyone over in his way out. I respect the hell out of that and no one else could’ve pulled it off better.
You can hear the crowd turn, he had them in the palm of his hand and he knew it, what a great promo.
He literally exposed how fickle wrestling fans are actually are.
you can tell most there dont even know why theyre booing him
For all those in the Crowd that was Chantin' , "Shut TF Up" durin' this Amazin' Promo , were ANNOYIN' AF , and I'm Glad Cody Ignored the Sh*t out of them 💯
oh, and the same idiots would get triggered af if NY started to heckle like this to their beloved Confederate Briscoes . These hecklers are drunk idiots living in a jim cornetta echo chamber. This was DC but its still south of the Mason Dixon line.
Your such a mark 🤬
@@dftpnk2011 It's *You're , not 'Your' , learn the difference , and then get back with me
FACTS
@@hakeemjohnson3185 Cool Story Hakeem.
I’m here after that Cody/Punk promo before the royal rumble and wow… it’s crazy to see how things are now than two years ago…
Cody literally just rehashed this promo with the “he’s more CM
Punk”. Too bad those smarks were too busy booing other than listening to his promo.
Im here a few days later roflmao and holyyyyy shit
@@depthbyvfx9604its probably a work dude. Get over yourself. The way the announcers and other wrestlers alluded to it sounds to me that Cody's still gonna get a shotat Roman
@@depthbyvfx9604it’s still hilarious cause bro could’ve been at the top here but its all good.
@@whodatn4l948 lmao I didn’t even say shit about what I thought man so relax. All I said was holy shit just because of the current line up of events in the past few weeks. I’m not worried about if it’s a work or not.
Cody has everyone that doesn’t know what he’s doing under his thumb and it’s brilliant, I can’t wait for the “Homelander” heel turn.
Stfu he's not turning heel. Geez
I might just be speaking for myself but I actually want him to stay face, sorta like how John Cena used to get booed but would still make great matches and hot feuds.
This is the turn. You're seeing it right now. Slow and steady. Becoming a "new" version of himself. A nice amalgamation of Legacy, ROH and Bullet Club Cody.
_"I carried every ounce of anti-monopoly sentiment on my shoulders! I held every grain of the revolution in my hands! And each and every one of you cheered!"_
Without any context, you'd think this was a line from Macbeth or Caesar, or the diary of some mad dictator like Robespierre, Buonaparte, or Bolivar. Cody truly is the mad king on the verge of insanity. The way he went on and on about the achievements of AEW may sound like a rallying cry for all of the promotion's fans, but it can also be seen as the ramblings of a waning leader, defiantly holding on to his past glories. He talks of revolution, and yet like Robespierre and Bolivar, the revolution seems to be leaving him behind. He's drowning in all of his powers, his fame, and his hardships. Will he prove himself to be a man of quality, or befell the faith of many others before him, being consumed by the very people he once fought for?
Wonderful soap opera bullshit and I love it.
Edit: Also, he references Punk like a Stalin name-dropping his own Marx and Lenin. Rose-tinted glasses of simpler times for both his audience, and himself.
"Homelander" heal turn sounds fkn brilliant, it's actually fitting for his current gimmick
Cody’s promos skills are so underrated 👏🏾
Congrats to this man for being the one to end the greatest pro-wrestling championship run of all time
Greatest? Lol no 😂but still one of the greats title run in recent times
@@wrestlinginfodude2644is the greatest, and I'm not even a roman fan
I dare you to hate this man! He's so ridiculously good.
They jeered him in the beginning, they cheered him by the end.
If MJF, Darby, Sammy, and Jack and the 4 Pillars, Cody was the Architect that laid down the foundation for them. He built the Pillars and hung the Forbidden Door himself.
This promo was so rambling. I don’t understand the point he was trying to make
I hate him
Cody was the single most important driving force behind the creation of AEW and I will be forever grateful for it.
@@vegetalover9297 I mean, of course you do, he can get to the point in 7 minutes instead of 7 episodes, and he doesn't even charge up his Ki to win a fight.
@@knightshousegames damn lmao
This was actually a good promo. He even had the crowd in the palm of his hand. I'm still hoping Guevara becomes the Undisputed TNT Champion Next Week but still I give Cody Rhodes credit.
Cody > Sammy
Good bro
Weren't they were chanting Royal Rumble half of it?
@@wendigo1619 weren't the were once was upon a time ?
Yea tell that to the crowd that was cheering and chanting shut the phuck up
A promo foreshadowing his next set of moves. These promos and every word said is more meaningful considering he's left.
Great promo by Cody, really knocked it out of the park with this one!
All X division champs ranked when 🤔
He really did knocked it out Of The Park
This promo had great emotion but Cody was all over the place. It took him 6 minutes of irrelevant pretentious rambling to get to the damn point.
Big fan of cultaholic and AEdub
@@JoseGotBeatz1 that’s the point... this was a promo of heel that thinks he’s a face.
I loved this. Even though the few in the crowd was trying to be annoying, Cody powered through once again, stood honest and reminded them of what led up to the AEW we love today. 10/10 stuff right here
I wouldn't say it was just a few.
more than a few unfortunately. The crowd was so shit tonight
Scumbag crowd
Almost like it’s a pro-wrestling show…..ya know….where you’re allowed to cheer and boo for who you want…..🤦🏻♂️ AEW fans are such fuckin babies.
@@j.rivera6402 booing is fine. Some heckling is fine. The whole show and just for attention tho? Gtfo.
You sit next to me and try to be obnoxious the whole-ass time, you better believe I'm gonna have words with you and if we end up outside, the surrounding people will cheer for your ejection even if I go too.
He picked up right where he left off from here. Amazing storytelling from that CM Punk and Cody Rhodes Face to Face promo.
Cody’s character is on the verge of breaking. This is great long term stuff right here.

also in the promo he talking about kevin owen

After that Cody Rhodes come to Raw.
Well damn
@@slowactingh2012 ikr
Jesus Christ! I love how Cody referenced the pipebomb, then proceeded to cut a Pipebomb of his own! This is easily one of the best promos of his career!
Referencing the pipe bomb doesn't mean shit. All the things he said "I won't turn heel cause I love you people" he said it before
@@johnnyskinwalker4095 lol you didn't seem to read my whole comment, this promo was fantastic, he pretty much did his own pipebomb, I don't care how much you hate Cody you gotta admit this promo was great
One of the best promos of what lmao ?
He was all over the damn place. Just because he said shit with emotion doesn't mean it's good
Lmaooo
Cody and Mox with two of the best promos I've ever seen in the last decade if not ever. They poured their souls into them and it shows.
Thanks AEW for WM40. Especially in Philly, the hometown of the company y'all only wish you could be
I love when he gets louder. He's literally screaming from the soul.
Yes, we can feel the rage he has when he's hated by everyone.
@@TBBonTH-camNot everyone hates him. Some people just want him to turn heel. I don't really care at the end of the day cause there are more pressing stars to watch.
meh I'm tired of it
He practices that in front of a mirror, over and over. Doesn't even deny that.
@@amodernphoenix and mirror doesn't care
This will be AEW marks' greatest blunder in history. They wanted him to turn heel, now he's the biggest baby face in all of wrestling and everyone is embracing it.
I wanna see their faces when Cody became an instant Classic in WMXL.
Moment doesn’t happen without AEW. Cody’s story wouldn’t be the same if he was just floating around. Him building his own shit by hand made it even sicker when he did it.
@@Captainpuntymidgetsthanks aew for not renewing his contract then that very nice of them to let him go
And how’s that going? People are starting to say the same thing in AEW he even talked about it in a interview where he refused to turn heel.

Got chills when Cody said "I did them". Amazing promo 👏
Respect for Cody, he handled that crowd and stayed on point, good promo.
AEW fans probably crying themselves to sleep when they watch these clips. They say "you never know what you have until it's gone" Cody was so important to AEW in more ways than one, when he left things started to crumble for them.
All the way back on the Cody train after this. Killer promo.
Agreed, same here
Marks be marks

FICKLE! FICKLE! FICKLE!
@@philtv2382 How do you know they're an "E drone" as you say?
You mean the generic face promo that wrestlers like John Cena have delivered millions of times?
Cody's got that Robespierre character. Beautiful words addressed to a populous on the brink of abandoning him. Whenever he brings them back to his side, they slink back to the status quo. He's drowning (the character, that is), and it's damn compelling television.
Aew's french revolution
@@maxwellpeter5955 Cody might as well be bringing a list of names to the Paris Commune with Saint-Just, professing his achievements and convictions as the building tries to eat him alive.
_"I brought the revolution! I brought CM Punk! Malakai Black! Brody King! Remember our fallen comrade of the same name? I brought him here too! And I'll bring in his son too! It was all me! CHEER FOR ME, PEASANTS!"_
That's the vibe I'm getting if I were to interpret this as a heel promo. Perhaps Cody didn't mean it to be that heelish (as this is me trying to deconstruct this promo with only one interpretation of things), but goddamn what if he did tho?
Amazing comparison.
Beginning to become what he hates the most and what he fought against, and will have his whole "revolution" (company) turn against him.
This is one of the smartest wrestling-related comments ever read in years. Kudos bro, it's utterly brilliant

@@xMikeyHardyx yup all makes since now
I saved the one between Stardust and Dusty Rhodes. Tore me apart.
Now he has made history in one of the best main events in the grandest stage and has the most important championship in his back.
what really sells this promo to me and gives me the goosebumps is the facial expressions. the smirk and facial twitching when mentioning Black's name is just on another level. if you have any creativity or imagination, you could legit see the thought bubbles over his head when he let his face do the talking. We love when any wrestler just states facts in their promo. The Miz, being the first guy that pops into my head in that regard. Truly next-level stuff, this is absolutely a promo id show up and comers as something to strive for in their delivery.
You had me until you mentioned The Miz... Everything he says and does in the ring seems 100% phoney to me. Nothing he says seems legit, he comes across as just a guy playing wrestler

He talks about Cm Punk like he's Gol D Roger from one piece. Lmao
Or Ieyasu Tokugawa since he literally cut his opposition to take over and unify Japan lol.
I will never understand why this guy gets hate.
He’s done more for pro wrestling than ANYONE in this last 10 years.
They stopped hating him the second he started screaming at them. That’s the Reddit audience for you.
He keeps leaving, his character gets stale, people want something different with him. Essentially they want him to be a heel but he refuses to be a heel because he wants to be an American hero that gets cheered like his dad. I think he would do great as a heel and could be the top heel of the company and I wouldn’t mind if they put the word title on him but only if he turns heel. A babyface run with the title would be boring cause we have seen him as a baby face champion with the tnt. So yeah that’s the problem with Cody.
@@giantasianstickerr S TFU I DIOT! HE DIDNT PLAY *JACK F UCKING S HIT!*
I dont think people really hate Cody, in fact most people who boo him like him. They just want him to be a heel, cause he is really good at being a heel. it would be like a face MJF. MJF is amazing, but I want to boo him, not cheer him
@@giantasianstickerr when does doing heelish things then he is a heel. Right now he is that John cena baby face where he gets booed and cheered or like baby face Roman reigns.
This is his way of saying thank you for this revolution, time to reform my own.
QUALITY promo that, one of the best I've seen. Turned a crowd completely in about 7 minutes. Unbelievable.
What crowd did he turn? Someone literally screamed STFU
People hate him and boo him to death
@@ckwsportsentertainment5184 If you was actually there In person I was the crowd was definitely cheering it was a small section of fans chanting that and the main guy got kicked out
Great promo. When talked about why he doesn't turned heel that got all the people booing to cheer for him.
I have been a Cody Rhodes fan for a long time The one Vince let get away.
AEW version of U Cant See Me Guy Never turns heel Just Rise Above Hate Preaching Hustle Loyality and Respect Cody is Peacemaker (Dc comics)of Aew a dellusional hero ,he is the real deal
@@winfredfowler8169 2 months later...
its unreal now how disrespectfully the AEW crowd treated him
What did you expect? You breed a fans full of smarks, you get smarky reactions.
The markiest of marks are AEW fans.
Those are just punk fans.
@@travisprice1325 mark: someone who enjoys wrestling.
you're forgetting that at the time, Cody's character was stale and kinda boring. As he said, the crowd wanted him to turn heel, but I guess he knew he was leaving so there was no point to do that
The one man chant was honestly a sad attempt to drag this promo down but Cody still made it a perfect 10 outta this.
I swear people like that clown are yelling and booing him just because they think its cool or funny to do.
Personally iv always been a fan of his, but its almost like people are just like "oh hes the boss lets boo him".
I’m sure it’s the same guy Moxley had kicked out?
@@karlm641 Yes
@@classmst89 your buying into the work he already is a heel
@@tylertravis2081 lol i aint "buying" into anything
I have chills of a Punk & Cody feud in the future that was an absolutely fantastic promo by Cody he always put out great promos but that maybe one of the best he ever put out he also reference his contact status too I am loving his work right now.
I was just thinking the same thing today. That feud would be awesome
Who’s here after he made his Debut at Mania tonight????🇺🇸☠️🔥
Meeeeeee
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻😂
Return!
Return.. not debut.
It’s bittersweet watching it back 🎉
Cody had the crowd going. Booed from the start and won back the crowd. He's really that great. Can't wait for his heel turn in the future.
Hes the only one that doesn't know
Its going to be tremendous.
They boo him to the death
This Cody heel turn is like veer mahan. It never comes because when it comes it'll be over for Cody. There won't be anything to tease people on . He's just living in tease day by day edge by edge, he had all emotion no matter here like nothing made sense he was all over the place
Cody is foreshadowing everything for us and letting us know his frustrations:
“He said he couldn’t save the promo”
CM Punk acting like he would lead the change when Cody actually led it.
Cody is telling people he’s leaving because CM Punk is here taking credit for shit he has accomplished. You want to pay a man that talked about the things I actually did and you forgot. He owned this moment
💯💯💯
Your bias shines through
Don't worry now they're taking credit away from Punk as well.. This is what AEW is..
@@baigmen my biased?? I actually don’t like Cody at all minus respecting his belief in himself and his perseverance. You’re assumptions and complete incompetence and ignorance is starting to show though
If "I tried to tell you" was a person. I'm glad to see Cody doing well and about to take those titles. He continued to get better as a wrestler and cutting promos.
Feels weird seeing Cody on aew now. But he’s the one that started it lol ….it’s even more crazy that people hated him at the end .
Once again thank you for running him out. He’s now the biggest star in the business
This promo screams 2016-2019 Cody when he was still doing those NJPW, ROH, PWG, Impact, and other independent promotions stuff and I’m all here for it!!
Say what you want about Cody, but man he turned that crowd quick smart from “Cody sucks” chants to “Cody, Cody, Cody” chants in literal seconds
This was Cody's "pipe bomb", amazing times we live in today.
Cant believe this was the Cody's last promo in aew
AEW fans did not give this man enough love. He built that company.
I miss him in AEW, fans treated him way too harsh for no god damn reason, him leaving is our fault
So true. I thought for the longest time he was gonna turn heel and attack hangman and go after the title ignoring his own stipulation. Then he was gone. He’s the reason I watch aew
Some fans are stupid marks, they didnt value what they had, now pointing fingers on who to blame, while they're the reasons of its downhill
AEW misshandled him. AEW as good as it is it has made lots of big mistakes last year!
@@zagonialpar9208 where did AEW misshandled him? He was the guy that got the stupid stipulation, he was the guy that put himself away from the Elite and lastly he was the guy that played in to the "Will i turn into heel or not". This whole things are on his shoulder and no one to blame
Cody liked it
He came along way Cody Rhodes after Randy Orton and Ted dibasbe even that stardust gimmick. He became excellent on the mic and getting intuned with the crowd. His father would be proud of him he doing a lot more then golddust did in his prime.
White angel Cody Rhodes is a good gimmick
Yeah but Dustin is kicking ass now and growing up in the 90s he was still kicking ass back than
Not only did Cody power through yet another heckler in the crowd but got everyone to cheer for him at the end of the promo. Guy is truly amazing
That heckler was...man, i dont have words
Fans were braindead tonight sadly. Phenomenal promo from Cody.
They really were. That royal rumble chant.... just wow
Not really a surprise.
Yeah...this episode had something weird.
@@MannyMartinezC very true
Dude is a beast on the mic. He’s everything his daddy was and much more.
I know it's been year but his Daddy is mount Rushmore worthy. This comment is insane. Cody is great but he isn't the fucking legend that is Dusty Rhodes
This was his best promo yet. No crackling of the voice like he wanted to cry, but with passion and a bit of viciousness and anger. This Cody is the one I want to watch!
Literally thought of this promo after RAW 1/22/2024.
Cody Rhodes did what CM Punk's pipebomb was supposed to be. Cody Rhodes is the Greatest of this generation.
The prequel to the Cody/CM Punk promo on Raw last night.
“Before there was a forbidden door I was the one who built it”
On February 15, 2022, this promo makes so much more sense now.
