Cody Rhodes interview with DC 101 Mike Jones

Cody Rhodes recently gave an interview to Mike Jones of DC 101. Here are a few excerpts from the exchange:

When asked if the highlight of the moment during his match on RAW this week was when Randy Orton was about to give him a superplex, Rhodes said “I think there was a moment in there after that, when he went to RKO me, we snuck him in with the Cross Rhodes.”

Mike then asked him if he had fun during the recent European tour, to which he said, “You know what, I really was blown away because I got the opportunity to go to Russia for the first time. To be there kind of in the heart of the Soviet Union and now it’s just capital free and WWE programs are in their homes, it’s really just unique for me. I really enjoyed it.”

Talking about the Russian fans, Cody said, “It was cool, they were new fans. Every place we go has a different sound, especially when you’re crossing waters; a different pace to them. They were really new. So, it’s almost that they didn’t know it was okay to go nuts until maybe the end of the second match. So we heard some things we don’t hear in the States [laughter]. It just kind of made us laugh.”

Mike then asked him what other storylines he was following currently, Rhodes said, “The post Wrestlemania fallout is always extremely intriguing because it’s just interesting to see who moves forward, who survives and who starts the path to Wrestlemania 30 on the right foot. It’s Cesaro. It’s Kofi Kingston. It’s Dolph Ziggler. It’s myself. It’s that bearded maniac who hangs out there with me, Damien Sandow. It’s all these superstars that I want to see on Wrestlemania 30, that I want to see moving forward, elevate themselves.”

Mike then asked him about his future plans, if he would team with Sandow or focus on singles wrestling, to which he said, “I think for me it will be, this year is rather pivotal as far as what happens next. I had all the momentum in the world as the Intercontinental Champion going into Wrestlemania 28. This year I didn’t have all the momentum in the world. It wasn’t a bad year, or anything like that. I want to move forward, heading into Wrestlemania 30, these are the two. Dolph Ziggler and Cody Rhodes. They’re the future. Well, we’re kind of reaching the future. So it’s my job now. It’s no one else’s job to be speculative or analytical.”
