Ex-WWE Champion has 1-word reaction after Cody Rhodes' serious injury is announced before RAW
An ex-WWE Champion has reacted to the vicious attack by Kevin Owens on Cody Rhodes following Saturday Night's Main Event. Since the attack, the company has issued a statement regarding Rhodes' condition.
While Cody Rhodes was able to win his match against Kevin Owens at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, he didn't get to celebrate. Owens attacked him after the bout and hit him with a Package Piledriver, leading to him getting injured. He had to be stretchered out of the arena and taken to a hospital. Since then, the company has announced that he has suffered a cervical spine injury that has led to him being kept overnight at the local hospital. Former WWE Champion Kofi Kingston has now spoken about it.
While most fans were expressing their regret and anger at Kevin Owens in the comments, Kingston didn't hesitate to express his opinion about the injury. He said, "Karma," indicating he felt that Rhodes had deserved it for what he said to Xavier Woods and Kingston following their betrayal of Big E.
"Karma."
He also shared a video clip of the moment where Cody Rhodes had confronted him and Xavier Woods backstage and told them that they should be ashamed of themselves.
"You both should be ashamed of yourselves."
Kofi Kingston has reason to be upset with Cody Rhodes
Kingston may have been a babyface for the longest time, but the star recently turned heel with Xavier Woods, throwing Big E out of the group. They brought their alliance with the injured star to an end, disregarding his broken neck and saying that he was only using it as an excuse.
Naturally, the entire locker room turned on them, except for a few stars like Karrion Kross, who appreciated their decision. Rhodes had confronted them at the time and told them that they should be ashamed of themselves.
Given their tendency to hold a grudge recently, it seems that neither Kingston nor Woods are likely to let that go.
