Cody Rhodes reacts to getting fired: Raw, Sept. 2, 2013

Cody didn’t know it at the time….But this was the start of his story

well..... this aged well

Cody was right 10 years ago. He should have stayed in AEW.

Hes right look at what happened last night with the rock. It brought me back here

This is surreal to watch now. I'm so glad that Cody is finally where he deserves. Finish the Story 🙌

This how his story started!

The fact that it came up on my feed on the day of Royal Rumble 2024 is wild

2024 and now Cody Rhodes is a two time Royal Rumble winner.

Anyone
Watching in 2023

Before Brandi Rhodes jumps to the main roster in 2014

Thisss was the most underrated best promo ever

Look at him now!!

Cody always had the potential. He's better than ever now anyway

I just revisited this after a year. Definitely Cody's best promo, I feel the pain here, I do. This was shot from the heart and I'm glad that he got the chance to get this off his chest. Great storytelling in an otherwise lacklustre era. Cody should watch this again. This one cuts real deep

Aria Divari as Security Guard

I knew back here, in 2011, that Cody was great. These idiots let him go to the indies first

WWE is so stupid. Instead of pushing Roman to be their baby face it could’ve easily been him.

9 years ago I though he was fired but then in real life he was giving a day off for his upcoming wedding with brandi

Was the crowd not watching this promo? I swear I thought I heard them laugh when he mentioned his brother. Didn’t seem like a fitting reaction for this promo?

This is a storyline which seems organic because it actually shows the struggles Cody went through in becoming the top2 wrestler just behind Reigns in the making.

Vince should have seen his potential back then just from this promo

He's so good at doing promos. You can just feel the emotions

This aged well

Me Too He Should Beat Roman Reigns at wrestlemania and He Will be the Champion Again I Liked Cody Rhodes

This will happen again and Cody will return to AEW and be the 1st wrestler to leave AEW and go to WWE and then go back to AEW. You’ll see.

Cody Rhodes left WWE in 2013 then he came back to WWE as the American Nightmare Cody Rhodes ready for another crack at the WWE title

Rip dusty Rhodes😢

From undesirable
To undeniable

Say what you want to about Cody Rhodes from the time this segment took place to the present day in mid-2023, or, vice-versa:

Great acting job, here!...

You legitimately felt bad for him--even though this was a story-line & The Authority was just getting started.

😂

And nothing has changed in 2023. Vince still hates the Rhodes and treats them like a joke.

This hits different in 2023💔

His dreams still on the line

2013 Cody Rhodes already had the looks. He would have been champion that year.

Who would've thought he made his return at WM 38

I love Cody

Dude is the best story teller in wrestling and we’ve been ignoring it for years.

This was the promo that changed my opinion of Cody. I thought he was a alright wrestler before this, but his from the heart emotion about his family being targeted by the McMahons I felt could have been the real push he could have used to get him over. It was working till Vice killed it.

This need to happen now!

Very interesting how this connects together

Ever since he got fired 2013 and later on he becomes the American nightmare 🔥 2023

I can confirm what he said here after Wrestlemania 39

Codyyy🎉🎉🎉

I am Here After losing to Roman Reigns
