JBL says The Rock's segment with Cody Rhodes was incredibly well done.
On the February 21st episode of WWE SmackDown, The Rock called out Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and told him that he wanted him to be his champion. He also told Rhodes that he wanted his soul.
Speaking on Something To Wrestle, JBL was asked whether he saw the segment.
“I did, I thought it was strange, and I thought it was probably supposed to be strange. Sometimes, you do stuff that you don’t have a finish to. That’s why you call it episodic television, and I thought that’s what that was. I have no idea what ‘I’m gonna take your soul’ [meant], I don’t think anybody else does. I thought it was incredibly well done. It looked uncomfortable, and I think that’s how it was supposed to look. I thought it was incredibly well done. By the way, you got the biggest movie star in the last 20 years coming back to WWE. There’s no downside to this. A lot of people have always gotten mad about guys coming back, mad about the Warrior coming back, about Sid coming back, about Hogan coming back, about The Rock coming back. Look, if you’re big enough, you don’t need ‘em. But there ain’t nobody bigger than that man, and so it’s always great to someone like that come back because it really does help the show," JBL said.
