WWE Smackdown was reported to have the presence of two top Raw Superstars in Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes. The two were advertised locally to feature in the main event segment and that was the case for the fans in attendance. The two did feature in the dark main event segment for a singles contest. Something interesting also went down, afterward.

Per the updates from social media, Cody Rhodes defeated Seth Rollins in the dark main event after WWE SmackDown went off the air, this week. Once the match was over, a young fan jumped the barricade to try and get a picture with the winner.

As seen in the videos released, The American Nightmare initially seemed worried about the fan trying to get in contact with him from behind, and immediately called for security. Rhodes asked the kid about his parents, before requesting him to return to his seat. The kid’s request to get the picture with him was eventually granted. The top Raw superstar also shared his reaction to the video of the kid jumping the barricade to meet him after WWE Smackdown tapings.

“This popped me. He ended up getting the pic. Good kiddo,” wrote Rhodes.

Cody Rhodes surprise another kid after WWE Smackdown

This wasn’t the only happening after WWE Smackdown taping, this week. According to PWInsider, there was another incident that involved a young fan at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. This one also involved Cody Rhodes.

Apparently, the superstar who returned to WWE at Wrestlemania 38 saw a kid with a sign noting it was his birthday. So, he wanted to bring him up to the ring. He wasn’t sure whether the security will allow him to do so and hence he eventually said “scr*w it” before lifting the kid on the ring apron for the fans in the arena so that they should sing Happy Birthday. This incident closed out the blue brand TV taping from Long Island.
