Cody Rhodes gives his honest opinion on Damian Priest after WWE Crown Jewel 2023

WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes recently opened up about his opponent, Damian Priest, after the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event.

The American Nightmare went into a bout against The Archer of Infamy after the latter, alongside his Judgment Day teammates, assaulted Rhodes during an episode of Monday Night RAW. It was one of the best matches of the show, as both stars showcased an amazing display of skill and strength. However, Cody came out victorious in the end.

In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Rhodes talked about his match with Damian Priest. The American Nightmare hailed The Judgment Day member's ability in the ring despite being one of the tallest guys in the business.

"With big men, it's always their ability–or lack of–to 'do both'," said Rhodes. "He has the height and reach and power, but he is also deadly quick. A rare breed. Don't like him, but certainly respect him and his continued gains." [H/T: Sports Illustrated]
