Cody Rhodes Is Feeling ‘Real Braggadocious’ About His Recovery From WrestleMania 42 Injuries, Wrestling One Week Later

Cody Rhodes says he is feeling ‘real braggadocious’ about his recovery from the injuries he suffered at WrestleMania 42.

At the event, Cody would defend the WWE Championship against Randy Orton at the event, and would come away from the event with several injuries, including staples, stiches and an orbital injury.

While speaking on ESPN’s Get Up in a new interview, Cody Rhodes was asked about the various injuries he received at WrestleMania 42.

“Yeah, I’m here and I’m holding the WWE Championship. So most important thing and all that concussion protocol and the fact that this thing was completely swollen shut staples to the back of the head stitches to the front of the head. I still found a way to wrestle the following week. So I built a little different. I’m feeling real braggadocious about it. Gave me his best shot and I came to wrestle the next week.”

Cody is currently scheduled to defend the WWE Championship at WWE Clash In Italy later this weekend against Gunther, and in a recent interview, the former WWE World Champion spoke about a potential face turn in Europe. You can read more about that here.
