Cody Rhodes Criticized For ‘Super Cheesy’ Gimmick

Cody Rhodes is one of the biggest Superstars in WWE right now and it was been building up since his return at WrestleMania 38 last year. Rhodes is clearly incredibly over and that was apparent for a long time now. Now it appears he was ripped for his gimmick being super cheesy.

Cody Rhodes’ dreams were crushed after he was unable to defeat Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39, despite his best efforts. Right after that, he began feuding with Brock Lesnar, which got reignited last week on RAW.

There is simply no denying the fact that Cody Rhodes is one of the most over babyfaces in WWE right now. Rhodes always looks dapper and cuts sophisticated promos while reminding fans he is the grandson of a plumber.

While speaking during a recent episode of Keepin’ It 100, Konnan admitted that Rhodes’ current gimmick is “super cheesy” and criticized him for the same as well.

“I will say that you’re very right. He [Cody Rhodes] does look super cheesy. Looks disingenuous to me. He looks like a used car salesman meets a TV evangelist meets a politician, with kinda like the fake smile, with the really white teeth, with the suit, hair is always perfectly quaffed, you know, going over there and, you know, playing with the children and giving everybody a high five. It is kind of cheesy.”

Cody Rhodes challenged Brock Lesnar to a match at SummerSlam on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW. We’ll have to wait and see how WWE will book their feud in the coming weeks.
