After the event, Owens attacked Rhodes in the parking lot in an incident caught on camera by fans.

"I'd be foolish to try and tell you anything different because the entire video exists online and you can see every inch of it. I'll try and keep my remarks short in terms of how I feel but I will tell you this. t's a very passionate industry, everybody wants the north star of our business which is the WWE championship and the championship that I hold at this time. I don't know if you'll see this unfold on screens, on Smackdown, on Raw or when we come overseas," Rhodes told Ramazani Mwamba of the Manchester Evening News.

He continued, "Pro Wrestling and sports entertainment tends to like dive into that. Perhaps it does, or perhaps its dealt internally. I overall, I did feel very happy about my match at Bad Blood. I was happy for the city of Atlanta, that being the city that raised me. Everything happened and appeared and I was happy for Atlanta and the WWE because it feels like the road to Wrestlemania started early this year."

Rhodes' next challenge will be WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

The two champions will meet at WWE Crown Jewel to crown the first-ever WWE Crown Jewel Champion.
