Cody Rhodes gets some help from Terence Crawford.
Cody Rhodes opened the July 19th episode of WWE SmackDown, expressing his remorse over what happened to Randy Orton at the hands of The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, & Jacob Fatu) last Friday.
Rhodes called Orton his brother, and then turned his sights on his WWE SummerSlam opponent Solo Sikoa. Just as Rhodes was about comment on Solo, he was interrupted by Austin Theory & Grayson Waller.
They blame him for Jacob Fatu taking them out last Friday. After they got in the ring, Rhodes quickly attacked. He was outnumbered, but found an equalizer in boxing champion Terence Crawford, who handed Rhodes a chair to fend off Waller & Theory.
