Cody Rhodes Vows To Kick Randy Orton’s Fucking Head Off If Given The Opportunity Again

Unaired comments from Cody Rhodes.

At WWE Sunday Night’s Main Event, Cody Rhodes hesitated in kicking a wounded Randy Orton, which led to his downfall as Orton took advantage and hit the RKO to win the match.

On Friday’s SmackDown, in a sit-down interview with Michael Cole, Cody admitted he hesitated to pull the trigger at Sunday Night’s Main Event, but was confused by the notion that he needs to change given all the success he’s had. He also said he wouldn’t make the same decision if the situation comes up again.

In unaired footage, Cody said he wouldn’t hesitate to kick Orton’s fucking head off.
