WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes has opened up about his relationship with Brock Lesnar.
The Beast Incarnate took on The American Nightmare in a singles match at SummerSlam 2023. This was their third match, and it ended with Cody picking up a huge win over Lesnar.
Cody Rhodes recently spoke with Sports Illustrated and opened up about his relationship with Brock Lesnar. The American Nightmare hinted that they aren't close, but he appreciates his passion for the business.
“Getting thrown around by Brock is like going for a ride on a roller coaster. There is no one like him. He’s a rare athlete. Plenty is gifted by God, but I know he had his strength and conditioning coach with him. He’s back home farming, but he was also preparing. This is what he loves. I don’t talk to him, and we don’t know each other like that, but I get a sense that’s the type of passion he has. He makes this a heavyweight company, but he’s also agile. It gives me even more motivation to go to the gym every day." [H/T Sports Illustrated]
