What exactly is WWE doing with Rhodes? What is his character or where is he going? I think hes kinda stuck in a transitional period at the moment. He was dashing Cody Rhodes, then we had the dark/sinister cody rhodes with the protective face mask..and now its like a mixture of the two. Like when he comes out he'll smile and then turn around and give a sinister look..kinda weird. Anyone else know what im talking about?

It's come to the point where he doesn't really need a serious gimmick to get over. He's pulled off the past two gimmicks well, and that got him over w/ the fans(well, at least most).

Cody Rhodes is his gimmick. Like Hermz said, he's already got the fans behind him. I've been saying for over a year now that he's a future WWE or World Champion.

Na man, i cant agree with about him being over with the fans...he gets what i would call a very lack-luster reception. |

Not too fond of the Gimmick, In my opinion needs a Refreshing something! Anything, but hey! WWE is still giving him the right acknowledgement with pushes so it's fine by me!

He's just Cody Rhodes. And he does a damn good job at it.

I love Rhodes. But since losing the mask he hasn't had much mic time. They seem to be resting him on his laurels instead of pushing his character.

I have just deciphered what "the fans" means!!!! It means " the vocal few marks in the crowd " and the Internet wrestling community.
While Cody is over with the fans, I doubt he'll be over with the majority of people that attend WWE shows, and watch at home. But that does not mean he won't get a WWE or World Title run, Anybody can win those belts nowadays.
I just hope Cody can get his alternative lifestyle gimmick all to himself by beating Dolph Ziggler in a ladder match, however it scares me to think what would be suspended above the ring for that match.

I dig Rhodes. I just want him to work the mic a little more.

I think Cody needs to spend another year on he mid card, why rush him to the top? He's not going anywhere, he's solid on the mid card. I don't think he's quite ready for a main event push yet. They need to concentrate on Ziggler.

I think he should still be wearing the mask personally. Why take away a gimmick when it's working? I like him as he is now, but why not let the guy be as unique as possible? I thought he ws more ready for the main event then, than he is now.

I think the time for "gimmicks" has gone when it comes to wrestlers like Rhodes, Ziggler and so on.
They're just badass heels who love themselves and want to prove their superiority to the world. I think that's good enough context for anybody as established as Rhodes currently is in his position.

It's just that ever since he lost the title at Wrestlemania they've barely given him any mic time, it's rather disappointing.

Are you deaf, dumb, and blind? Typical internet mark...i watch the same show as you every week...i aint seeing what you see. People in the crowd dont give a rats ass about Rhodes...im a fan of Rhodes..you're clearly a fan...we are internet marks. Theres a big difference....Jinder Mahal has fans who are only internet marks. Doesnt mean hes over. |

Wrestling was better when Cody Rhodes had the mask.
