Rhodes dove into that and said those conversations only exist on social media. He is not sure if a heel turn is in the cards for him in the remaining time he has left in wrestling, but he has a 'never say never' mindset about it.

“One thing I noticed about that (heel turn conversation), it only really exists on X -- is that -- and it’s deep, the discussion. It’s a deep discussion and I don’t even -- yeah, you never say never in wrestling but, plenty of people in wrestling have got the capacity for the light and the dark but, I don’t know. I don’t know if we’re on that road in the time I have left within my time in wrestling. Who knows though?... You never wanna say never…”

Rhodes won the 2025 King of the Ring tournament and is now set to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam in August.
