Cody Rhodes recently spoke with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, "The American Nightmare" spoke about his feelings about the WrestleMania Backlash 2022 pay-per-view that saw him score a second consecutive victory over Seth Rollins being a "wrestling card."
Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where he touches on this topic with his thoughts.
“I understand that sports entertainment is the proper term in WWE, but Backlash was a wrestling card. Bell-to-bell, there were stories told in the ring, and there was competition, and there was violence. It just felt different. If me being back helps bring that identity, then good because I’m not changing. I’m going to be me. I was really satisfied with our two matches. It was pure wrestling. I thought that chapter was closed, but I’m looking forward to what’s next between us.”
