"There's no doubt in my mind"- Wrestling Legend on Cody Rhodes becoming a World Champion in WWE
WWE Hall of Famer John "Bradshaw" Layfield has shared his thoughts on Cody Rhodes' recent victory over Seth Rollins.
The American Nightmare defeated The Visionary for the second consecutive time at WrestleMania Backlash. The two former Intercontinental Champions also locked horns at WrestleMania 38, where Cody prevailed after making his triumphant return to WWE.
Appearing on WWE's The Bump, JBL reflected on the match between the two RAW stars at WrestleMania Backlash. Layfield stated that Cody going 2-0 over the Visionary was a huge statement. He also believes that The American Nightmare winning the top prize in the company is inevitable:
"I think you know how great Seth Rollins is right now, and I think we know how great Cody Rhodes can be. Cody is on that road and getting this win over Seth Rollins was huge, it was a huge statement. Cody [Rhodes] is a future world champion. Put it down, you can etch it in stone. There's not a doubt in my mind about what Cody Rhodes wants coming to WWE and what he is going to get."
