WWE RAW star and a former two times WWE Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes who is also a former six times WWE Tag Team Champion recently claimed himself to be the best wrestler in the world “By A Large Margin.”
Cody Rhodes started his professional wrestling career back in 2006 at the age of 20 only. He trained in the Ohio Valley Wrestling for 1 year before making his main roster debut in 2007. The OVW was the Development Territory of WWE back in the time. He had been pretty impressive from the very first day of his professional wrestling career.
Cody Rhodes Claims Himself To Be The Best Wrestler In The World
He has always been treated as a mid card wrestler in WWE as he mostly focused on the mid card championships and the Tag Team championships. After spending a decade in WWE he had been released from the promotion in 2016. He started working on the independent circuit after getting released from WWE.
In 2019 he joined the newly founded professional wrestling promotion the All Elite Wrestling as a founding member of it. He worked as a mid card star in this promotion as well. He focused on the mid card Championship AEW TNT Championship which he won for a total number of three times.
In 2022 he parted ways with AEW and returned to WWE once again. He worked in a match with Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 38 upon his return and it is being considered as one of the best matches of the event. It looks like he will be treated as a main event star in WWE for the first time in his career.
Cody Rhodes who is also a former six times WWE Tag Team Champion recently spoke to Sports Illustrated where he claimed himself to be the best wrestler in the world “By A Large Margin.” He said;
“I think I’m the best wrestler in the world. And I think it’s by a large margin. That upsets a lot of people, but I don’t mean it to draw ire. This is all I do. I’m not in charge. I’m here to hone my craft, build my body, and win matches. Every week, I have to be better. That’s the ultimate clarity for me.”
“I’m on the flagship show. Look at the pyro and grandeur. Hats off to Kevin Dunn and his team for taking the ‘American Nightmare’ and expanding upon it. I know I must be better every week.
“That’s the only way I can stay the best in the world. Week to week, I’m putting myself under a microscope. Go ahead and put all the microscopes in the world on me. I want FOX to come calling. I did it for Turner Media and I got a great education at my last spot. Bring it on; I want it all.”
