Below are a couple of top WWE stories of the day, featuring Cody Rhodes and the LWO.
• As seen in the main event segment of RAW (tap here for complete results), Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes came out to save Sami Zayn from Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens came from behind and attacked Cody and they started fighting. Sami came back in the ring and went for a kick on Drew, but he accidentally hit Cody instead.
CM Punk came out and asked Cody if he’s okay. Cody asked Punk if he’s his friend. Punk said he is and knows that Cody is feeling the pressure of having the target on his back as the champion.
Punk declared that he’s winning the Royal Rumble and will pick to face him at WrestleMania 41.
Cody said in the past he was chasing after Punk, and now Punk is the one chasing after him. Cody said he hopes Punk wins the Royal Rumble, so they can face off and Punk can see he is no longer the Best in the World.
After RAW went off the air, Carmelo Hayes attacked Cody. Carmelo announced that he will be a part of the Men’s Royal Rumble this Saturday. Hayes then brought a Table into the ring, but failed to do anything, as Cody hit him with a Cross Rhodes and powerbombed him through the table to send the fans home happy.
