Wrestling crowds are known to be unpredictable.
This happened at the T-Mobile Arena on Friday night, but Rhodes reacted in the best way possible.
At the end of it, the crowd began to shift.
The boos got weaker, and slowly but surely,a chorus of “Cody, Cody Rhodes!”
In the end, the crowd was clearly and convincingly cheering for the champion, as it should be.
He didn’t say anything particularly shocking, buthe maximized the time he was given.
He didn’t say many words, but they were all meaningful.
Most importantly, the intensity and the delivery turned the crowd to his side again.
A lot could have gone wrong in that situation.
WWE also didn’t help.
