Rhodes Promises to Turn Tables on Lesnar After Recent Arm Injury
Cody Rhodes, the superstar who has been on the receiving end of Brock Lesnar’s brutal attacks, made a bold declaration. He plans to face Lesnar at the upcoming SummerSlam and aims to embarrass him in the ring.
Rhodes, who has been nursing an arm injury inflicted by Lesnar, addressed the crowd and his fans at home with a fiery speech. He acknowledged Lesnar’s impressive track record, including his UFC heavyweight championship win and his NFL stint, but Rhodes was far from intimidated.
He said, “Brock, you made a mistake. And the mistake wasn’t beating me up in front of my loved ones, taunting me in front of my family. The mistake was you left me breathing.”
Rhodes then went on to express his intentions for SummerSlam, stating, “I don’t want to go to SummerSlam just to win the rubber match. I want to go to SummerSlam to embarrass you, Brock Lesnar.”
He further added, “I’m not poking the bear. I’m slapping the bear across the face and saying come and get it!”
Rhodes concluded his speech by stating his desire to beat Lesnar not just for its positive implications on his career, but because Lesnar “made it personal” when he broke his arm. He promised that when he looks back at his career, the chapter on Brock Lesnar will end with him pinning the final paragraph at SummerSlam.
