No B.S. , I met him a month ago at a WrestlePro event in NJ, and I swear we had a 5 minute conversation about Zelda and getting into the business. Such a nice dude and it felt like we were talking forever.
cody talking about if he didn't know they could sell out a 10,000 seat arena is so funny because not only did they sell out in under 30 mins but Saturdays all in was a epic show
Sana He’s horrible. Comes across AS PRETENTIOUS; like he TRULY “Knows the business”... ESPECIALLY when he answers the guests questions and goes “that’s what your trying to do right?” LOVE that he got put on spot & Had to meekly admit that he’s Drawing a WWE CHECK. Some unbiased journalist.
This interview foreshadows so much. Cody kept true to his word. He did get ROH to help among others but he took it a step further and decided to attempt change without a known company and forge his own path (with a little help from his friends.)
Holy wow, Cody looked tired there at the end. (I mean, the bags under his eyes were there the whole time, as was the Red Bull, but.) Never say the man's not working his butt off.
compare him to how he is here and how he is in ring just shows how damn good he is that he can get over so much as a heel and be such a nice, easy going guy in an interview like this would be great to have a drink with listening to him talk about stories of industry etc.
It boggles my mind that during 10 years service time & being the son of a legend... At the very least he never was given the MITB Briefcase. I would've asked to be released as well. Now he's more popular than 75% of the WWE roster with Bullet Club & The Elite.
@Last Drop Falls As Paul Heyman said with Ariel Helwani few years ago "WWE has 90-95% market share. They are not going to give up 1% market share to anybody, you have to take it from Vince Mcmahon. Unfortunately that is true. Of that fanbase... I don't know how many know that Cody is wrestling. Then again I don't know what type of people watch wrestling nowdays with the rating drops. Are they all smarks or how many of them are casuals? Still good for Cody that he is happy and good for us fans that follow something else then WWE.
Cody Rhodes is a great pro wrestling performer and promoter. He started All Elite Wrestling alongside The Young Bucks and Tony Khan because there are certain groups of pro wrestling fans who want more competition other than WWE's brand of sports entertainment.
Cody is a "cult of personality." He is his dad's son. Dusty would be proud. Now with AEW, the Rhodes legacy will be eternal. Hall of Famer, Legacy family and now Promoter. Keep it going Cody.
HavenElric Yes he really is ODD looking person. He belongs in the WWF ATTITUDE ERA FACTION: ‘THE ODDITIES ‘ CODY WAs ribbing but, There’s NO WAY possible SAM can be objective since he’s drawing @WWE PAY CHECK. That’s why he gets ALL THOSE WWE Guys in his shows. I know for a fact WWE has strict guidelines in a couple of issues that are OFF LIMITS & won’t let certain ?’s be asked. That not being a real journalist.
Cody looks like John cenas illegitimate son, ......that aside Cody is one of the greatest minds in pro wrestling very smart to the business but also he DOSENT take him self too seriously always a good listen
Him and Ted Jr was misused I remember back in 09 I was seeing Randy on top of the world and I guess he gets to be on top but not Cody and Ted they become jobbers now and then they get the IC or US championship and probably a great win but they both should’ve one at least the World Heavy weight championship or the WWE because of they are 2nd and 3rd legacy wrestlers like Orton they should’ve been on top like Orton
WWE has all the money, and production as the biggest wrestling company but the creative team is completely clueless (VINCE MCMAHON) they don't know how to use people. Look at Drew Galloway for example he left and had a better career and now they bring him back to capitalize on his popularity that he had to create himself
I'm suprised goldust still isnt doing the gay/ androgynous(not going to pretend I spelled that correctly) thing anymore. In this day and age he'd be a hero for the mainstream media. Instead he's like a comic book character, I guess?
I went back and watched that Rosenberg interview with Stardust, he didn't seem to take any offense lol. Cody's description of the incident was very hyperbolic.
The actual reason for Bernie though. hear me out, because its NBC universal. NBC owns USA Network, which hosts what wrestling show on monday nights now? only in this wrestling world, but whose to say an olive branch wasn't extended, cody turned it down, and WWE got a hold of NBC to say, yo detain the boy rhodes there at the door, make it difficult for him so he will want to come back to us in wwe. Its not as ridiculous a theory as it should be for a small rib like that.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
Cody is pure gold
you know!!
Listening to him talk about All In like it’s still hypothetical is a trip
Man I swear I was just thinking watching this now knowing what he would do and be a part of in the future us crazy
And now we're REALLY ALL IN.
Crazy where were at now, wwe champion and face of the company
Cody is a great conversationalists👊
Cody: "I'm conservative and from the south"... marries a Black woman.
Cody 2 seconds later: Ok i'm a hypocrite
No B.S. , I met him a month ago at a WrestlePro event in NJ, and I swear we had a 5 minute conversation about Zelda and getting into the business. Such a nice dude and it felt like we were talking forever.
2023 and these interviews are still worth watching
cody talking about if he didn't know they could sell out a 10,000 seat arena is so funny because not only did they sell out in under 30 mins but Saturdays all in was a epic show
“I’m hoping we can fill the 10,000 seats” The amount of things that can change in two years...
Philip Fermano what happened?
ZMZMPPI they fill more then the 10,000 seats probably
ik and he was proven right about matt
A lot can change in two years….
Sam Roberts is seriously good at interviewing. Dude has skills.
Sana He’s horrible.
Comes across AS PRETENTIOUS; like he TRULY “Knows the business”...
ESPECIALLY when he answers the guests questions and goes “that’s what your trying to do
right?”
LOVE that he got put on spot &
Had to meekly admit that he’s
Drawing a WWE CHECK.
Some unbiased journalist.
Lol, what? He sucks. Cody us just a good interviewee
Reading these comments in 2023, knowing better than 75% of the people leaving glowing comments here are now big time cody haters is such a hoot.
This interview foreshadows so much. Cody kept true to his word. He did get ROH to help among others but he took it a step further and decided to attempt change without a known company and forge his own path (with a little help from his friends.)
Holy wow, Cody looked tired there at the end. (I mean, the bags under his eyes were there the whole time, as was the Red Bull, but.)
Never say the man's not working his butt off.
+Stone Harper
he shouldn't they never pushes sons of Legends
Parker Gann They pushed the Rock son of the legendary Rocky Johnson. They pushed Eddie Guerrero son of legendary Gory Guerrero.
Tim Smith maybe he got punch in your face
Loved the fact that he laughed when Sam asked him about The Revival. 😁
Seeing this live was WONDERFUL!
I love the Cody Rhodes interviews! or should I say the just Cody interviews.
Well...possible place where the “Inner Circle’” idea came from??? 54:58
Cody is a much better man than most but he should of stuffed that promoter in the broom closest with blood dripping but still breathing normally...
compare him to how he is here and how he is in ring just shows how damn good he is that he can get over so much as a heel and be such a nice, easy going guy in an interview like this would be great to have a drink with listening to him talk about stories of industry etc.
I debate which Cody I prefer the heel or face
He is aa natural heel. I love him as heel@@uncledracula6522
It boggles my mind that during 10 years service time & being the son of a legend... At the very least he never was given the MITB Briefcase.
I would've asked to be released as well.
Now he's more popular than 75% of the WWE roster with Bullet Club & The Elite.
@Last Drop Falls majority of fans are smarks no matter how you look at it😂

Sam Roberts podcast great as always
these cody rhodes episodes are great!
Loved this interview. I hope more are on the way soon.
Worst experience is Blitzkrieg Pro right?
noooo, don't tell me Blitzkrieg was that shady promoter
Great interview Sam, Cody is always great lol
Where is this Goldust video where if he debuted today? It sounds so familiar, like I've seen it before.
+Alexander Nielsen it's in the other video Cody did with Sam.
Sam looks like Pennywise tbh
HavenElric Yes he really is ODD looking person.
He belongs in the WWF ATTITUDE ERA FACTION:
‘THE ODDITIES ‘
CODY WAs ribbing but,
There’s NO WAY possible SAM
can be objective since he’s drawing @WWE PAY CHECK.
That’s why he gets ALL THOSE
WWE Guys in his shows. I know
for a fact WWE has strict
guidelines in a couple of issues
that are OFF LIMITS & won’t let
certain ?’s be asked.
That not being a real
journalist.
And he belongs floating in the sewers
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I hate you so much 😂
Or krusty the clown.
how in the fuck does this not have more views!?!? the swagger of both sam amd cody is incredible gahddam
This is excellent. I love Cody and the way he speaks
Wish they would have talked about WCPW a little bit.
8:42.....great story
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Im dead "well, do you wanna get paid"
Always giving us great interviews.
this was obviously filmed before Jinder won the belt at Backlash
Cody looks like John cenas illegitimate son, ......that aside Cody is one of the greatest minds in pro wrestling very smart to the business but also he DOSENT take him self too seriously always a good listen
42:28 thanx me later 😄 #FTR
Cody is such a great interviewee.
Cody is so GD charming.
I'm from union county nj.....moved to the pacific northwest..miss wrestling.......
Props to wcwc for keeping it alive.
the fact that he's not SIGNED to ROH in my opinion makes him a REAL world champion (in the old school sense) which is really cool to me
the very interview that FTR cited as where they got the heat with Cody and the Bucks
16:22 anyone know who hes talking about.
Blitzkreig pro I'm pretty sure
no apology needed just cody that bad experience story hilarious 😄
the door guy stamps your hand 😄
Was this interview taken down then reposted? I watched this interview about a month ago.
Is this a re-upload??
They recorded it around May, Sam's just uploading it now
36:00
and now in less than two weeks time ALL IN is happening
Cross promotion with ROH Young Bucks vs the Revival...Wrestlemania....Who wins?
Robert Mechling knowing WWE, The Revival
Zachary White True, but The Young Bucks are the best tag team in the business. So they just shouldn't even be in a match with them.
The young bucks because FUCK THE REVIVAL
No one cause it would be boring as hell.
Robert Mechling Fuck The Revival
I'm assuming it's Blitzkrieg or however it's spelt.... I almost went to that show but I also was in Florida when that shel happened.
damn your the 2nd person to say that. Is this the same Blitzkrieg from WCW?
When was this interview taped?
Loved this interview.
Now we have AEW
Really good interview
I'm buying his shirt now just on his feelings towards the ending of LoZ:BoTW.
#americannightmare #toosweet
man cody was so misused by wwe.
steven cotton WWE misusing someone...noooo!.lol
Him and Ted Jr was misused I remember back in 09 I was seeing Randy on top of the world and I guess he gets to be on top but not Cody and Ted they become jobbers now and then they get the IC or US championship and probably a great win but they both should’ve one at least the World Heavy weight championship or the WWE because of they are 2nd and 3rd legacy wrestlers like Orton they should’ve been on top like Orton
The weird ridges on Sam's forehead distracted the crap out of me. Kept thinking of Londo from Babylon 5
Holy shit when were you guys in Rahway?
This looks exactly like the last interview. Nice suit and energy drink! HAHAHA
WWE has all the money, and production as the biggest wrestling company but the creative team is completely clueless (VINCE MCMAHON) they don't know how to use people. Look at Drew Galloway for example he left and had a better career and now they bring him back to capitalize on his popularity that he had to create himself
when was this recorded?
7/6/2017
Holy crap, you filmed this in May?
I’m loving this
Cody needs a podcast
Cody loves Star Wars and you can't teach that (sorry, I couldn't resist)!
thetruecish and likes the legend of Zelda
Cody should’ve been put with Heyman. He could’ve been a monster superstar and WWE never would’ve had to deal with the AEW fiasco
WWE dropped the ball. Cody should have been a big superstar over there. Great mic skills, look and good ring work. Also good size.
10:00 that so I can come back and finish the video
34:22 Pretty wild watching this in December 2021... haha
Why would the Hardy return at WrestleMania vindicate Matt and not Jeff? I'm confused as to why he said Matt worked hard for it but no mention of Jeff?
I wonder if that Connecticut promotion is NEW? Is there another one?
Chris Evans it was
@@brandonselitetv1436 It was Blitzkreig Pro. Dude worked NEW shows even after this.
I'm suprised goldust still isnt doing the gay/ androgynous(not going to pretend I spelled that correctly) thing anymore. In this day and age he'd be a hero for the mainstream media. Instead he's like a comic book character, I guess?
6:34 mocap (videogames??!)
dodofro motion capture for video games
Is Sam contractually obligated to not mention NJPW?
FlixerDK I mean he's a WWE Sponsor
I forgot Cody had a stint in TNA lol
I went back and watched that Rosenberg interview with Stardust, he didn't seem to take any offense lol. Cody's description of the incident was very hyperbolic.
is this old?
It's all new....
Sold 10,000 seats, revival v bucks happened and Cody's going to become a dad
FTR
I would say he got his grace period at the G1 USA, Cody was walking around for like 10 minutes like he owned the joint ahah
Cody is such a rad dude I fucken love him as a person. Call me a mark I dont care, suck it!!!! Tooo sweeeeetttt!!!
Cody and Sam should have a match
nice a 1 to 2 month old interview 👍
52:45 I see what you did there.
The actual reason for Bernie though. hear me out, because its NBC universal. NBC owns USA Network, which hosts what wrestling show on monday nights now? only in this wrestling world, but whose to say an olive branch wasn't extended, cody turned it down, and WWE got a hold of NBC to say, yo detain the boy rhodes there at the door, make it difficult for him so he will want to come back to us in wwe. Its not as ridiculous a theory as it should be for a small rib like that.
Love the journey......jim cornette.
That promotion in Connecticut that tried holding Cody's money sounds like North East Wrestling (NEW) to me.
ShaneKarma376 it was
Wow not surprised.
I thought so too but he wrestled for them a few times. And NEW has been around for awhile. I know there other promotion there as well.
Youre lying. It was Blitzkreig Pro.
I doubt that. AEW promoted on North East Wrestling where both Cody and Hangman wrestled.
Fuck I missed Cody going through Hartford... Damn!
Cody was probably talking about northeast wrestling when he was talking about indy show
No, he said it was a new promoter. NEW has been around for some time.
So pertinent now
WHEN WILL CODY COME TO PORTLAND?
We wrestle here.
The Joey Ryan portion of this hasn’t aged well.
The Joey Ryan thing certainly hasn’t aged well
This interview has aged well
Miss the stache cody.
How did you get a contract how you can do WWE and roh Slash and jwb
It's not Jewish prognosis wrestling I meant to say New Japan
Not scanned??
goodinterview
Did Sam Roberts just predict the inner circle?
Cody will (or already did) receive good karma for going to that dinner
Ya anybody can go out every night with little planning and do super kicks the entire match
Sam's thumbs
I would have named them. Matter of fact, someone needs to find out when did he work with Dijak....and DOX that promoter.
It's time to shave the head Sam your face is getting bigger... it almost reaches the back of your neck now
