Cody Rhodes: “I Try Everything I Can To Not Become A Corporate Version Of Myself”

Cody Rhodes opens up about the balance.

One of the topics of conversation that came up during Cody Rhodes’ appearance on ALL THE SMOKE was Rhodes wondering if ‘the disruptor’ is still inside him, seeing as how he’s now one of the faces, if not the face of WWE.

The current Undisputed WWE Champion stated that he tries not to become a corporate version of himself.

“I think a lot about it now, because now I’m often put out there as the face of the company and I don’t know if that’s accurate or not but that’s often where I’m positioned and I’m honored by that role but I think, is he still inside? I know that’s like a crazy thing. Is this disruptor — is he still in there? How would he approach this? How would he feel? I try everything I can to not become a corporate version of myself, even in the most corporate settings. It could be quite easy actually. You get everything you ever want and then, you gotta find it inside. Is it still lit? Is it still on fire?”

Rhodes’ latest title defense was against Drew McIntyre at Saturday Night’s Main Event. He successfully retained the belt.
