Rhodes mentioned that if anyone was his fan, they had to make a choice between him and the outside forces during WrestleMania season. However, Cody Rhodes also stated that WWE loves such spots, and now, being the promotion’s top star, he, too, had to deal with it to be able to be a part of the big WrestleMania moments. That’s what the big job means to him.

“So, outside forces. You could look at this year and say, ‘Hey, here’s Pat McAfee.’ You could look at the year before and say, ‘Here’s Travis Scott.’ You could look at the year before and say, ‘Here’s The Rock.’ If you are a Cody Rhodes fan during WrestleMania season, it’s a choice. We deal with outside forces. We deal with, ‘Hey, they want to be part.’ We’re about it, and I can say this, it’s a spot I always wanted. If you’re gonna be in the big moments, you have to be ready for the big jobs,” Cody Rhodes said.

Cody Rhodes admits Pat McAfee doesn’t fit in his storyline with Randy Orton

Cody Rhodes then stated that Pat McAfee was the outside factor in his storyline with Randy Orton.

The American Nightmare strongly felt that a character like Pat McAfee doesn’t naturally fit into this storyline, which has a 20-year history between master (Randy Orton) and student (himself). However, he understood how important a character the former NFL punter was for ESPN, where WrestleMania will be telecast for the first time.

“Pat being part of ESPN and the fact that WWE WrestleMania is on ESPN for the first time ever, it’s actually a natural fit. Does it fit in a 20-year wrestler, student, teacher, mentor, all of that? No, but Pat sure thinks it does, and now Pat has the title, so we can tell that story another time. That story has also already been told. Let’s figure out how this unfolds.” Rhodes said.

The American Nightmare concluded with hope that his Legacy-driven story with Randy could be told another time. They just have to figure out how this will unfold and for the next path to open.
