Cody Rhodes is "grateful" for special Bad Blood moment

At WWE Bad Blood, Cody Rhodes teamed with Roman Reigns against Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu. Before the match, Cody was played out to the arena by the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff's marching band. This is the same band that gained traction after their rendition of Cody's theme song went viral on social media.

Looking back at Bad Blood, The American Nightmare took to social media to express his gratitude for the special entrance.

​

"An entrance I will never forget ❤️ So grateful to @m4gram for playing me out for #WWEBadBlood. Having this PLE in Atlanta hit different."
