Cody Rhodes isnt planning to change his theme song anytime soon and he made it clear theres only one thing that would force his hand. The American Nightmare has used Kingdom by Downstait since leaving WWE in 2016, carrying it across the independent scene and bringing it right back with him when he returned to WWE in 2022. The song has become one of the most recognizable entrances in wrestling, and Rhodes says theres a simple reason why it stuck. While speaking on Matt & Shanes Secret Podcast, Rhodes explained that wrestling themes dont need to be perfect songs they just need to be memorable enough for fans to latch onto. Rhodes also explained why Kingdom has remained tied to him for so long. Unlike most WWE themes, the company doesnt own the track because he took it with him after leaving WWE and used it while rebuilding his career on the independent scene. That history is a big reason why he sees the song as part of his identity today. Then Rhodes dropped the key detail the one situation where fans might finally hear something different. He said the only way his theme would change is if his character direction flips completely. Rhodes made it clear that as things stand now, he doesnt see himself separating from the theme that helped define his comeback run. For now, it sounds like Kingdom isnt going anywhere unless Cody Rhodes makes a major turn that changes everything about his character. If that ever happens, fans may hear a brand-new theme as the first sign that something big has shifted. Do you think Cody Rhodes should ever change his theme song, or would switching it only make sense if he turns heel? Drop your thoughts below and let us know what you think.
