Cody Rhodes Confirms Serious Injuries After Jacob Fatu Attack on 6/21 WWE SmackDown

Cody Rhodes is currently embroiled in a feud with The Bloodline again and this week’s SmackDown saw the debut of Jacob Fatu, who utterly dismantled Rhodes. In light of Fatu’s attack, Rhodes has stated that he suffered serious injuries.

On the June 21st episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Jacob Fatu made his shocking debut. With a menacing smirk, he unleashed chaos on Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens. Despite Rhodes’ valiant efforts to fight back, he was overwhelmed by Fatu’s raw strength and aggression.

Fatu capped off the night by brutally putting Rhodes through the announcer’s desk with a huge splash from the top role, cementing his alliance with Solo Sikoa and The Bloodline and making it clear he is here to destroy Rhodes.

Following his match against Shinsuke Nakamura at a WWE live event in Bloomington, The American Nightmare confirmed that he suffered two broken ribs as a result of Jacob Fatu’s attack. Rhodes was also taped in order to show off that he was injured.

”The loyal WWE fans saw what happened on SmackDown. So, before you hear from anybody else, a little scoop for you Bloomington. Last night I did break two of my ribs.”

We will have to wait and see how Cody Rhodes will be able to combat The Samoan Werewolf in the coming weeks, as it is clear that The American Nightmare will not back down no matter what.
