He spends so little time actually wrestling that you know, he probably is sat on his ass playing 2K. I bet he set up universe mode to make himself face and to relive those dark years but everyone loves him.
If Cody is indeed the new face of WWE, then he's doing one hell of a job engaging with the fanbase. If he follows John's example - which I think every face should - and dedicates anywhere near as much to the charity events then I say this company is in great hands with Cody.
@@user-fm3xr9yz3iRemember, the same thing happened with Hulk. Kids were overdosing on those damn vitamins. We've only had one era when we could throw all the kid stuff to the wind and we're not in it anymore - and "thanks" to WWE/TKO being public, it never will be back. At least Rhodes can grow up and play rough when he wants to.
He's gotta win now, or this is gonna be an embarrassing look back for a long time. After wrestlemania people will play 2k24 showcase get to this part and remember how cody failed to finish his story over and over again. He cant afford to lose!
Now that I think about it, if Seth/Cody wins, then Rock loses it and will tell everyone that he's out of the Bloodline.... remember he said the stip is there is no Bloodline member at Night 2 🤔
@@jamirimaj6880there is no way roman or rock lose the tag match U think rock is losing his first match back? You think roman is gonna lose 1 day before the main event? It would lose the hype immiedetly of seeing him lose
@ZyXxOmAn There's an easy way around it, just have Rock totally lose it and get disqualified. Sure, he "loses" but neither he nor Roman get pinned. Or Jimmy accidentally costs them the match.
This feels like they made this with the expectation that Rhodes would not be finishing his story at mania this year due to the rock match. “There’s still another chapter in this story” just feels like something wwe would have put out to try and keep the Cody hype even though he wouldn’t be facing Roman
Especially where he tells us for a fact that he was winning the title next time he’s steps in the ring with Roman … I took it as a spoiler, and the game was out before WrestleMania
I haven’t kept up with WWE 2K games or any of their showcases and story modes since 2K14 But when I got this video recommended to me, I knew I had to click on it and it didn’t disappoint in coolness
This is why they can't have Cody lose at WrestleMania XL. They put him on the cover, they built up this whole "Finish The Story" thing, they acknowledge how he didn't win last year. If Cody loses this time...all hell will break loose. I guran-f***ing-tee it.
Stardust was his best form in wwe before the "nightmare" gimmick. The entrance theme was dope af, the gimmick paid homage to his brother but it wasn't a copy of Goldust.
The showcase mode was insufferable this year so I skipped all the cutscenes including these ones. Slingshot tech is lazy and stupid and should go away. But thanks for uploading this, wouldn't have noticed it otherwise
Please hear me out. I am a musician and I have a pretty good ear. Listen at the 2:48 mark. That's the same melody from Goldust theme song...easter egg? A return?
To get under Roman's skin cody should slap romans face but by saying how roman went off running away being scared taking on goldberg WM 2020 braun strowman took that spot and reigns was so jealous he forced himself back and cried stealing the title from bray wyatt instead of winning it
It would have perhaps been a *hair* more believable as a cut-in if they didnt... yaknow... freeze the video behind Graves every time he was "talking" to Cody.... they really couldnt include a little bit of B-roll of an idle Rhodes to fill the gaps?
Cool story, now do Brock. Oh that's right, he's white and rich, so he deserved everything Vince literally handed him from 2012 to now, right? Smh And don't act like it's not about race, you crackhead karen. Just because you can't see what's been dangled in your face for 20+ years, doesn't mean I can't.
If Roman & Rock are losing.. who will take pin?? Roman definitely won’t cuz it’ll kill his momentum. Definitely NOT Rock after decade of wait.. so it’s save to say Seth is getting pin 📌 by Rock or Roman so it’ll be BL rules and Cody coming out as winner 🥇 Night 2
1:31 No he hadn't. He had spent 6 years specifically to make himself into a star outside of WWE and even said he was AEW for life before something changed. WWE lying as always.
If you can’t handle me at my Stardust, you don’t deserve me at my American Nightmare
That's a great use for that quote💯
@bzyspecial stardust is a little bit nostalgic but Cody is better as a character
if you can't handle me at my Big Dog, you don't deserve me at my Tribal Chief. ☝️
If you can’t handle me at my Ringmaster, you don’t deserve my Stone Cold 🗣
If you can't handle me at my Sexual Chocolate, you don't deserve me at my World's Strongest Man
Sorry Cody, stardust was a preorder.
I think He misspoke
Also his father Dusty 😂
That was my reaction too lol
At first glance, I thought that said, "stardust was a predator."
Yeah, I think I'm gonna get off the internet for the rest of the day. 🤣🤣🤣
@@Emryss1996 Oh no Cody despised Stardust. He meant what he said
don't talk about American Nightmare Cody Rhodes without mentioning Stardust.
Love stardust.. Rhodes will have him come on sunday against Roman
@@kagamiuchiha25 respect the response and i agree.. bring on WM40 😁😁
he did one of stardusts taunts in the match against Rollins at mania 38.
the American nightmare name doesn't work unless he's gonna go back being a heel when he first coined himself that
he didn't coin himself that, that's what new Japan pro wrestling named him when he wrestled for them@@GabeBaddeley
It'd be awesome if they released a surprise Wrestlemania 40 showcase DLC shortly after Mania, where Cody actually does finish the story.
They will look at 2k24 when your done it’s still room for more stay toned
Wrestlemania 40 arena is a preorder/ extra for 2k24 so it could be possible
$$$$$
That'd take way too much time and money to do.
Cody confirmed that Roman played 2k24?
He spends so little time actually wrestling that you know, he probably is sat on his ass playing 2K. I bet he set up universe mode to make himself face and to relive those dark years but everyone loves him.
Stardust showing up like he felt a disturbance in the force 😂

It really feels like the original plans were Rock vs Roman
Yes hence Cody looking annoyed but professional

Yeah….finished….it’s not like I give up on the bonus match and still don’t have the achievement….
Cody rhodes saying is 2k pulling a prank on me is iconic
STARDUST JUMPSCARE
I have a theory they will add Roman vs Cody ll to the showcase after Mania
This needs to go viral nowww..
Well he did it
If we dont see rubber chicken at WM 40, im gonna be pissed
I really hope stardust returns at something and goes on a mean run
No 😂
Cody didn't like the character so don't get your hopes up
WM outcomes i'll never accept- Bianca beating Asuka. That literally made no sense.
Brock lesnar was mentioned now I thought wwe erased him
This part of the game was likely made waaay before the situation with Brock
I know he got PTSD putting that makeup on
I can't get past Roddy piper and Bret hart. That sleeper hold is brutal.
You know you can adjust slider settings on submissions right?
@@TheWeekndFan2011 I had to. I tried just playing with no adjustment.
I know it won’t happen and I know my hopes are too high but I’d love for Goldust to come out at WM and be a dlc character.
He was not playing when he said nobody was gon help em
Yeah I'm ngl I skipped every cutscence 😂
Stardust was Cody's best era
This is why they can't have Cody lose at WrestleMania XL. They put him on the cover, they built up this whole "Finish The Story" thing, they acknowledge how he didn't win last year.
If Cody loses this time...all hell will break loose. I guran-f***ing-tee it.
the company itself will give the biggest middle finger to all WWE fans that wanted this matchup if Cody ends up losing again
Now Cody the new champion
and the ratings show no difference
Cody rhodes saying whoa whoa whoa iconic😊
ItIS ICONIC
our favourite midcarder
As soon as WWE revealed the cover athlete ik Cody was gonna win at Mania. Hell the who MyRise UNDISPUTED kinda alluded to it
Stardust will return ❤
From 1:50 is all you need to watch
*Ha. Sneak a less than subtle upcoming Wrestlemania plug in there, Corey and Cody...*
I just thought about it and who else kinda thinks that Cody is gonna end up bringing out his “inner stardust” to beat Roman at WM 40?
do the wwe2k games have the same curse that the madden cover has? Hopefully not for our boy Cody.
Cory Rhaves and Cody Groves!
Was that archive footage or did he really wear the stardust paint again?
No that was him when he had brown hair
Stardust was his best form in wwe before the "nightmare" gimmick. The entrance theme was dope af, the gimmick paid homage to his brother but it wasn't a copy of Goldust.
yeah at first i didnt like it ,,but when he says his dialogues about the cosmic key it really is something, very entertaining
Stardust was honestly one of my favorite of Cody's Wwe gimmick
Cmon bro they cant do all this and make him lose at WM40 lmao
Upside is apparently there are Cody Side plates, soooooooo...
If they do have him lose, his momentum is as dead as disco
The hell is Bianca vs Asuka in showcase?
Because Bianca is on the cover
@@WWE4LlFE Yeah but we had a better option like her match against Becky, that one was better than Bianca vs Asuka and had more story
@@REVO025I would have preferred The Demon Finn balor vs Edge then this match, We finally got a demon appearance since 2021 and 2k didn’t include it!
I bet when Stardust return, it will be his Strongest form like the Demon of Balor.

that stardust jab was for him not being in showcase
Who's watching after WM?
4th wall broken
2:33 spoiled WM's finish
Cody is so jealous of Stardust
LOL WM37 never happened coz of Edge & Bryan. And Funny they had Corey mention Brock Lesnar.
2:35 Besides you still on the cover
I hated that Graves talks during the cutscenes where u relieve the match it killed the whole athmosphere of being in the moment of the match

Bianca belair was overpushed as hell in those 3 years,she got 3 moments continues, she didnt deserve at wrestlemania 39
Wrong

Better person? Wtf it’s entertainment bruh.
