Cody Rhodes has addressed the very public attack he suffered from Kevin Owens at WWE Bad Blood on October 5, 2024.
The attack didn’t take place on the show itself, but near Rhodes’ bus after the PLE itself, as can be seen below this news story.
Rhodes, who had teamed with Roman Reigns to take on Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu of The Bloodline, had been forced to miss the post-show press conference as a result.
The Undisputed WWE Champion has now spoken about the attack in an interview with the Manchester Evening News, saying:
“I’d be foolish to try and tell you anything different because the entire video exists online and you can see every inch of it. I’ll try and keep my remarks short in terms of how I feel but I will tell you this.
“It’s a very passionate industry, everybody wants the north star of our business which is the WWE championship and the championship that I hold at this time.
“I don’t know if you’ll see this unfold on screens, on Smackdown, on Raw or when we come overseas.
“Pro Wrestling and sports entertainment tends to like dive into that. Perhaps it does, or perhaps its dealt internally.”
Reflecting on his match with Reigns against The Bloodline, which also saw the return of The Rock, Rhodes went on to state:
“I overall, I did feel very happy about my match at Bad Blood. I was happy for the city of Atlanta, that being the city that raised me.
“Everything happened and appeared and I was happy for Atlanta and the WWE because it feels like the road to Wrestlemania started early this year.”
Since the initial incident, Triple H has stated that “the matter will be dealt with internally.”
According to a recent report, WWE has been very happy with how the angle came off, noting they loved the “buzz” it had generated.
