Cody Rhodes Breaks Silence On Kevin Owens’ Betrayal At Bad Blood

Cody Rhodes has broken his silence about Kevin Owens’ attack after Bad Blood 2024 but he’s not giving away anything just yet.

The Undisputed WWE Champion recently spoke to Manchester Evening News ahead of WWE’s upcoming UK tour. He was instantly asked about the topic everyone has in mind.

Rhodes first admitted that it’d be foolish for him to try and deny the unfolding of events since the entire video exists online. Though he is determined to keep his remarks short at the moment:

“It’s a very passionate industry, everybody wants the north star of our business which is the WWE championship and the championship that I hold at this time. I don’t know if you’ll see this unfold on screens, on Smackdown, on Raw or when we come overseas.”

The Road To WrestleMania Started Early: Cody Rhodes

The Owens turn had been teased for several weeks. The two stars almost came to blows during the August 27 SmackDown, after Rhodes inadvertently cost KO and Randy Orton a match against The Bloodline.

Nobody expected it to happen in such close proximity to The Rock’s return however and without any WWE cameras around. Even several days after the incident, the only official word has come from Triple H himself, who claims that the matter will be dealt with internally.

Cody Rhodes is not sure if the matter will be made public, but the events following his big match does make him feel like the WrestleMania season has already begun:

“Pro Wrestling and sports entertainment tends to like dive into that. Perhaps it does, or perhaps its dealt internally. I overall, I did feel very happy about my match at Bad Blood. I was happy for the city of Atlanta, that being the city that raised me. Everything happened and appeared and I was happy for Atlanta and the WWE because it feels like the road to WrestleMania started early this year.”

The American Nightmare is more focused on his upcoming Crown Jewel match with fellow World Champion Gunther at the moment. We’ll have to wait and see when the next chapter in his rivalry with his former friend is written.

Damian Priest Comments On His Future After Bad Blood Victory

Damian Priest might be looking to become a champion again after his big Bad Blood 2024 victory against Finn Balor.

The PPV match between the two rivals saw Carlito and JD McDonagh trying to help their Judgment Day teammate. Priest managed to outsmart the two in the end and picked up the victory with a South of Heaven.

The former World champion took part in the post-show press conference after the latest PLE where he was asked if he is done with Judgment Day and if he sees himself pursuing the world title again after this victory. Priest said that it’s something he’s gonna think about on his day off on Sunday:

“That’s something I have to think about. Obviously, today felt good. To get that win, beat the man that I said was gonna regret everything he did. I feel like I accomplished that. Am I done with the Judgment Day? I don’t think so, but who doesn’t want to be the champion?

That is something I’m going to have to think about, something I’m gonna have to consider. I have [a day] off tomorrow. So that’s what I’ll be considering, and come Monday, you’ll probably get my answer.”

The Ring General is the one who dethroned Priest at SummerSlam with some help from Finn Balor. So a rematch between the two would make sense.

Gunther is currently scheduled to defend his title against Sami Zayn on Monday’s Raw from Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri. After his remark, it’s possible that Damian Priest will be watching this encounter very closely.

Reason For Awkward Finish To Liv Morgan vs. Rhea Ripley Bad Blood Match

The awkward finish of Liv Morgan vs. Rhea Ripley Women’s Championship match at Bad Blood was seemingly the result of an audible called during the bout.

According to Fightful Select, the original plan for the bout was Liv winning the match with help from a returning Raquel Rodriguez. Things went into disarray when the referee called for the bell before that:

“It was implied that the original finish to Rhea vs. Liv was Liv winning with Raquel’s help. However the referee couldn’t justify not doing a DQ finish as he saw everything unfold.”

Rhea Ripley vs. Liv Morgan

The shark cage match at Bad Blood saw Dominik Mysterio being suspended in a cage at the ringside while Rhea and Liv battled inside the squared circle.

Prison Dom managed to pickpocket the lock and opened the cage door towards the ending of the match. While the door was open, Mysterio had nowhere to go because of his fear of heights.

Ripley took advantage of the situation and brought Liv outside to punish her right in front of Dom’s eyes. After a while, Dom couldn’t take it anymore and he tried to get out. Unfortunately for the 27-year-old, he forgot about the chain securing his leg to the cage and he found himself hanging in the air.

Rhea Ripley took the opportunity to get her revenge on her ex, and she picked up a kendo stick to punish Dominik. This is when Raquel Rodriguez made her return and she blindsided Rhea.

Raquel then threw Ripley back into the ring and after an awkward pause, the bell rang to signal the end of the bout. Rodriguez unsure of what to do after the sudden change in plans, still put Liv on top of Ripley for the pin but then picked Morgan up.

Rodriguez had been diagnosed with Mast cell activation syndrome in January this year. She competed at the Elimination Chamber in February despite her condition but was pulled from the active roster in March.

Drew McIntyre ‘Banged Up’ Coming Out Of Brutal Bad Blood Match

Drew McIntyre was understandably banged up after his brutal Hell In A Cell match at tonight’s Bad Blood PPV from Atlanta Georgia.

One of the spots in the grueling match featured Punk bashing McIntyre with the metal toolbox that the Scottish Psychopath himself had introduced in the bout.

Drew was legitimately busted open from this spot and according to PWinsider, the former World Champion required as many as 16 staples to close the wound after the show.

The site says McIntyre was ‘banged up’ coming out of the PLE but they didn’t confirm if he suffered any other injuries besides the obvious one tonight.

What Happened At Bad Blood

Things didn’t turn out as Drew McIntyre would have hoped at the PPV. The ending of the brutal match saw Punk wrapping a chain around his thigh and following it up with a GTS on his opponent for the win.

The year-long feud between the arch-rivals is believed to be over after tonight’s PPV. It’s unknown what the Triple H regime has in store for either of these stars after the Hell In A Cell match.

While the future of Punk and McIntyre is in question, there are some other major storylines that have been teased at and after tonight’s show.

Apart from an appearance of Goldberg in a segment featuring the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, the show also saw the electrifying return of the Rock. If all this wasn’t enough, WWE also pulled the plug on a long-teased heel turn, after the Bad Blood broadcast was over. You can check out more about it here.
