I hope he stays disfigured, I really enjoy the gimmick. Same here. I thought the Dashing gimmick was boring, where as I actually like the Grotesque gimmick.

I like both gimmicks honestly. He seems more natural to me when he's 'Dashing'.
The look of the mask is awesome though, makes him stand out a bit.

Am I the only one that would love to see Rhodes conflicted, switching between the two gimmicks as his mood changes?

Good example of them changing a good thing too quickly if this is really the beginning of him losing the gimmick. It hasn't been stale or boring at all and it could easily carry him for who knows how long. It's part of what has really shown Cody outshining other guys like DiBiase.
Patience is a virtue unless you are the WWE writing team.

Pretty sad someone having to sell a plastic mask shot like its death(like Orton did Monday). Just drop the angle already.

I think he will get rid of the mask in the next few months but it will probably get banned [by WWE Board of Directors] after Teddy and or them find out he no longer has clearance to wear it in matches especially considering he wins using it .

So just so we're clear... everyone here wants Cody Rhodes to go back to a gimmick that was destined for the midcard when he's clearly on pace to being something more than that with what he's doing now. Yup... Ok

Yup... Ok How is that a mid-card destined gimmick? I'm all for him growing and changing or whatever, but that gimmick definitely could have evolved. Are all heels going to be frumpy, manufactured, negative people with rock songs made by 12 Stones and Downstait? I don't see why that gimmick couldn't make him some sort of Kane/Mankind/Abyss like heel with more cynicism than the three of those have ever had. I dunno, I was having fun with it. 'Cody as Cody' is pretty unappealing to me.

Yup... Ok Don't see how it'd be going backwards really. This current gimmick is just a polar opposite to his previous one, so the idea of him having Cody switching between 'Dashing' and 'Grotesque', like some split personality, would be really cool IMO. I like that suggestion sean. Side note, I love the potential for DiBiase to move up by taking the IC Title from Rhodes eventually, and for Rhodes to then be elevated further by eventually winning the World Title from Orton. Think that would be cool to see the former members of Legacy helpingeach other to the top.

Oh whoops, didn't realize he meant the Dashing gimmick. Thought he meant Grotesque. I could see the 'conflicted' thing being fun for a while but I have to agree with him that it's really clear one is stronger than the other.
