Congratulations to Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes has been on a high ever since WrestleMania, where he dethroned Roman Reigns to become Undisputed WWE Champion for the first time.
Rhodes has since been leading by example and has become a popular star with the WWE Universe while also continuing his feud with The Bloodline. Ahead of his major six-man tag match at Money in the Bank, it was revealed that Cody Rhodes had ranked as the number-one men's wrestler in their 2024 Power Rankings.
It's hard to argue that anyone has had a more successful 2024 than Cody Rhodes, even though Damian Priest also has a claim to be in the top five after successfully cashing in his Money in the Bank contract at WrestleMania to become World Champion for the first time.
Priest will defend his Championship at Money in the Bank against Seth Rollins with the added stipulation that if he loses, he has to leave The Judgment Day.
Rhodes' title will not be on the line this weekend, but he is putting his reputation on the line when he teams with Randy Orton and Kevin Owens to take on The Bloodline.
Despite overcoming Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, the new incarnation of The Bloodline has put a huge target on The American Nightmare.
Cody Rhodes isn't the only WWE star to be ranked number one
This is a major achievement for Cody Rhodes, but he isn't the only WWE star to be ranked in the number one spot. WWE Women's Champion Bayley has also been ranked as the number one Women's Wrestler for 2024 in the ESPN Power Rankings.
Bayley has pushed herself to new heights over the past few months as she was ousted from Damage CTRL and fought against her former faction before taking on and defeating Iyo Sky at WrestleMania. She then proceeded to team up with Bianca Belair and Naomi, despite their issues earlier in the year.
Bayley and Cody Rhodes are deserving of their awards given the 2024 that they have had so far.
