• Dustin Rhodes Is Jealous Of Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes won the Men’s Royal Rumble match this year and main evented WrestleMania 39 for the biggest prize in professional wrestling – the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
This is something that Cody’s father (Dusty Rhodes) and Cody’s half-brother (Dustin Rhodes / Goldust) weren’t able to do.
On Busted Open Radio, Dustin had the following to say about The American Nightmare’s loss to Roman Reigns:
“I’m super proud of Cody. He’s being shot to the moon right now, which is great, and that’s good for him. I hope he gets that big one, that dad never got, I’ve never won a World Title.
There is a little jealousy, on my part, because, ‘Man, why can’t I do that?’ you know what I mean? But it’s okay, it’s not like the bad jealousy thing, so. I’m extremely proud of him.
He’s going to be World Champion, I know it. I don’t know when, but he’s going to be World Champion. So keep doing it man, they’re making him pay for it. They’re making him earn it, and I like that.”
Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar will be the main event of Backlash 2023 in Puerto Rico.
