Cody Rhodes is opening up about the reaction to his viral Raheem line on WWE SmackDown, and while the moment sparked plenty of discussion online, he made it clear he stands by the joke and has no intention of taking it back. The line came during the February 6 episode of Friday Night SmackDown, when Rhodes responded to the escalating tension between Roman Reigns and CM Punk. Rather than escalating the confrontation, Rhodes chose humor delivering a line that quickly gained attention across social media. Rhodes later spoke with Jonathan Hood and revealed that his wife, Brandi Rhodes, played a major role in convincing him to include the joke. Rhodes explained that his goal was to bring humor into the situation rather than escalate tensions between himself and the two top stars. While Rhodes acknowledged that people online were talking about the line, he made it clear he viewed the joke positively and wasnt bothered by any reactions. Rhodes also made it clear that his focus remains on his own path to WrestleMania, rather than getting pulled into the ongoing rivalry between Reigns and Punk. With Elimination Chamber right around the corner and WrestleMania season heating up, Cody Rhodes isnt looking back hes looking ahead. The line was said, the moment happened, and hes owning it. Now the focus shifts to what happens inside the Chamber and whether Rhodes can punch his ticket to the biggest stage of them all. What did you think of Cody Rhodes Raheem line on SmackDown?
