What did "The Viper" say to "The American Nightmare" after WarGames?
During the WWE Survivor Series 2023 post-show press conference, Cody Rhodes revealed what Randy Orton said to him after the Men's WarGames main event.
"At the end of the match, Randy said to me, ‘Thanks for the phone call.’ And I wanted to tell him ‘Thanks for my career,’" Rhodes said. "I keep thinking this is going to end and I couldn’t have gotten to where I got had I not been around Randy. Randy is so wild and chaotic and you hear all these funny stories about him and all this nonsense, but as a performer, a professional wrestler, WWE superstar. What an outstanding mentor he was to me truly."
Rhodes continued, "I’ll never forget standing in the ring at the Royal Rumble when he won, pointing at the star WrestleMania sign and just thinking, ‘I want to be like him.’ That’s [as] nice as I’m gonna get about [him]. I was really touched."
