• Cody Rhodes Reveals How Many Years Are Left Before He Turns Heel
During an interview with Kay Adams, former WWE Champion Cody Rhodes was asked about potentially turning heel. Cody said he’d prefer being a babyface until the end of his career, but he understands that fans can only like you so much and they would want to cheer for somebody else at some point, and that’s when he’d have to change his character. The American Nightmare said he has 1 to 3 years left as a babyface:
“These days, people love ‘cool heels’ like John Cena, but a true heel is someone fans genuinely want off their TV. That’s when you know it’s real. I think I’ve got a solid year, maybe even 3 (years) because I’m not changing unless I’m changed, if that makes sense.
My hair’s naturally dark and I don’t know if I could even go back. If it were up to The Rock, I’d have already made the turn. Maybe he sees something I don’t, he’s a smart guy. So, maybe I follow his lead. Maybe I don’t.”
Cody Rhodes will face Randy Orton in the Final of the King of the Ring tournament this Saturday at Night of Champions.
