Cody Rhodes isnt holding back when it comes to how fans talk about wrestling mistakes and hes got one word he wants gone completely, which is the term botch. Speaking on his What Do You Wanna Talk About? podcast, Rhodes took direct aim at the term botch, making it clear he doesnt think it even belongs in the wrestling vocabulary. He started by explaining why the word itself doesnt reflect what actually happens inside the ring, especially from a performers perspective. Rhodes then broke down what those moments really look like from inside the ring making it clear that mistakes happen, but theyre part of the flow rather than something that stops the match. To drive the point home, the American Nightmare pointed to one of his own in-ring moments showing that even top-level performers deal with things not going perfectly. The takeaway from Rhodes is simple what fans often label as a botch is just part of a live performance that keeps moving, no matter what. Instead of focusing on mistakes, hes pushing the idea that wrestling is about adapting in real time and making things work, even when they dont go as planned. Do you agree with Cody Rhodes that fans should stop using the term botch, or is it just part of how people talk about wrestling now? Let us know your thoughts.
