Val Venis, known for his provocative views and penchant for targeting individuals with differing ideologies, has once again stirred controversy, this time taking aim at Cody Rhodes. Rhodes, who has emerged as a prominent figure in WWE since his return in 2022, has garnered immense popularity as a hero figure and a key merchandise seller. However, his virtuous persona has not been universally embraced.
Recently, Venis levied harsh criticism against Rhodes, branding him a “Satan worshipper” for his support of transgender rights and urging him to cease promoting what Venis terms as “mental disorders.”
However, Venis’s actions took a disturbing turn when he dragged Rhodes’s daughter into the fray. In a tweet directed at Rhodes, Venis posed a hypothetical scenario, asking how Rhodes would respond if his child approached him, claiming to have been taught by a teacher that she was born in the wrong body.
”HEY @CodyRhodes! What are the first 3 things you would do if your child came to you and said, “Daddy, my teacher taught me today that I was born in the wrong body?”
Venis’s tweet not only crosses a line but also delves into deeply personal and sensitive territory. By invoking Rhodes’s family in such a manner, Venis’s actions have been met with widespread condemnation.
This is not the first time Venis has courted controversy with his incendiary remarks. Previously, he went as far as to accuse Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson of “selling his soul to the devil.” Despite facing backlash for his divisive rhetoric, Venis shows no signs of relenting in his attacks on Rhodes.
As the wrestling community grapples with Venis’s latest tirade, the question remains whether Rhodes will dignify these provocations with a response. The situation underscores the importance of maintaining civility and respect, even in the midst of ideological disagreements.
