4 Matches Cody Rhodes can have at Survivor Series 2024
Cody Rhodes has gained red-hot momentum following his huge victory against Gunther at Crown Jewel. With Survivor Series: WarGames being the next premium live event, The American Nightmare is likely to have a marquee showdown at the event. WWE has several exciting options for him on the table at this point.
From defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against a bitter rival to competing in a Men's WarGames Match, there are several matches Rhodes could be part of in Vancouver, Canada. Moreover, he could also compete in a blockbuster Triple Threat Match at the November 30 spectacle, the seeds of which may have been planted.
Let's look at four possible matches Cody Rhodes can have at Survivor Series 2024:
#4. Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens
Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens have been embroiled in a heated rivalry since their infamous brawl in the parking lot at Bad Blood in Atlanta. Following The Prizefighter's heel turn, they have been on a collision course. Therefore, Survivor Series 2024 could be the stage where they finally lock horns in a highly anticipated match for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Moreover, the upcoming spectacle is set to take place in Canada, the home country of Owens. Thus, the creative team might book him in a high-profile match. While he brawled with Randy Orton in Riyadh, KO's primary target is Cody Rhodes, making it quite evident that they are destined to go one-on-one.
After destroying The Apex Predator at Crown Jewel, Kevin Owens could be waiting to hunt down The American Nightmare on SmackDown this week. This could eventually lead to their potential encounter later this month.
#3. Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton
Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton have been on the same page, as they happen to be good friends in real life. However, there have been instances when The Viper has been spotted eyeing Rhodes' title, clearly indicating his desire to claim the coveted gold.
Additionally, there have been quite a few rumors of Orton's heel turn. Therefore, he might finally turn his back on Rhodes in the coming weeks and prey upon the latter. This could lead to a blockbuster feud with The American Nightmare, setting up the much-awaited dream match at Survivor Series: WarGames.
There is no doubt that it would be a blockbuster clash, but will it happen? The chances of it happening at the upcoming PLE seem quite low. However, WWE could pull off a massive swerve by pitting the two best friends against each other in Canada, as Survivor Series is WWE's one of the biggest events.
#2. Survivor Series Men's WarGames Match
This year's Survivor Series is expected to see a Men's WarGames Match between Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa's Bloodline. Cody Rhodes can reunite with The OTC, The Usos, and Sami Zayn to become the fifth member of their team, since there have been rumors of a new member getting added to the heel stable, making it a Five vs. Five match.
Considering Rhodes' history with Sikoa's faction, he could reunite with the OG Bloodline for one last time to put an end to the heel stable. Meanwhile, Randy Orton can continue his feud with Kevin Owens, keeping the Canadian busy until The American Nightmare gets a shot at KO.
Moreover, Cody has been an integral part of The Bloodline saga. Therefore, his presence in the potential WarGames Match would make perfect sense.
#1. Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens vs. Randy Orton
Cody Rhodes could also compete in a massive Triple Threat Match against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton at Survivor Series: WarGames. All three superstars are currently involved in a common storyline. While The Viper has a score to settle with KO, the former Universal Champion is more focused on getting his revenge on The American Nightmare.
Meanwhile, Cody also has unfinished business with The Prizefighter after the latter's betrayal. Hence, Triple H could put all three stars in a multi-person match at the upcoming spectacle. Additionally, a Triple Threat Match would add an element of unpredictability, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.
A match of this magnitude and star power could be a standout attraction on the card. It has the potential to garner huge buzz among fans and could pave the way for a singles feud between Cody and Randy down the line.
