Cody Rhodes clarifies that Brandi Rhodes will not be involved in his match at WrestleMania 39.
Cody Rhodes' story leading into WWE WrestleMania 39 has been all about his family. While the focus has primarily been on his father's legacy, Dusty Rhodes, Cody's wife Brandi is also a considerable part of the Rhodes' story.
In the past, Cody has stated that Brandy is almost equally as deserving of a WWE Championship as he is because of what her decision-making has allowed him to do. Now, in a new interview with Amy Nemmity of WrestleJoy, Cody revealed that he's excited for Brandi Rhodes to be a part of his moment at WrestleMania 39 but stressed that she would only be in attendance and she will not be appearing as part of the storyline.
“I always run the risk of saying too much, and I try to be careful when I say things like this, but I don’t get the opportunity to be a free agent unless Brandi Rhodes makes a certain decision that she made. That was a selfless decision. So when you see me out there, and I say I can’t do it without Brandi, I ain’t lying. That’s one hundred percent.”
Cody Rhodes says that Brandi Rhodes has not been to a wrestling event since her time in AEW and he's excited for her to be a part of the spectacle.
“I’m not talking about anything specific, but just to have her be out there because one of the things is, when you feel like you have a perception of something, sometimes you don’t understand that that’s really not the case. With being around the fans, whether in sports entertainment or wrestling, it’s worth it. Because they’re the best fans in the world. I know sometimes it’s easy for us to look at social media and say they’re not, but they really are,” said Cody. “You guys are the best fans in the world, and I just am excited to see her kind of rubbing shoulders with them all. Going to Hollywood and taking in the experience of what it’s like to not just be at a WrestleMania, but to take the walk, you know? And I want to be clear, she’s not doing anything at WrestleMania. I’m just saying I’m so excited for her to be there. I literally couldn’t be there without her. I’m not lying. So it’s as much her moment as it is mine. I will always be in love with her, and be in her debt.”
