Cody Rhodes took on the mantle of The American Dream at Double or Nothing for his match with Olympian Anthony Ogogo.
Ogogo buried Rhodes under the Union Jack a few weeks ago after dropping him with a devastating body shot. What started as the story of a student turning on his teacher morphed into one of national pride.
Cody Rhodes (w/ Arn Anderson) vs Anthony Ogogo (w/ QT Marshall)
Cody tries to wrestle Anthony who shrugs him off and buckle Cody with a punch to the midsection before hitting a pair of slams before dropping Cody with a boot and Cody takes him down before locking in a cattle mutilation before Anthony gets free and pokes Cody in the eye. Anthony drives Cody onto the mat for two before Cody comes back with a bulldog before hitting a Cody Cutter and Anthony knocks Cody off of the top before hitting a diving splash before Cody locks in a figure four and Anthony reverses it. Cody then hits a Vertabreaker for the pin and the win.
Winner: Cody Rhodes defeats Anthony Ogogo via pinfall.
