Cody Rhodes vs. Drew McIntyre seems to be the direction for the foreseeable future. Both men brawled during the opening segment of the latest episode of RAW. McIntyre would get the upper hand after he put away Rhodes with a Claymore Kick following the main event of the night.
The American Nightmare was joined by Sami Zayn after the show went off the air. The five-time champion brought up the #WeWantCody movement that led to “Rocky su**s” chants from the crowd. It is possible that Zayn could help Rhodes counter McIntyre next week on the red brand.
Both men seem to face a common enemy in McIntyre. Zayn was attacked by the former WWE Champion in the lead-up to the 2024 Royal Rumble. They collided in singles matches on several RAW events where The Scottish Warrior always got the upper hand.
