Well, howdy there, y’all! Let’s gab a bit about this Cody Rhodes fella and what that Rock feller gave him, ya hear? I ain’t no wrestling expert, but I saw some folks talkin’ ’bout it, so let me tell ya what I reckon happened.
What did The Rock give to Cody Rhodes? Seems like a big to-do, this whole thing. First off, that Rock, he’s a big movie star now, ain’t he? But he went back to wrestling, and these young whippersnappers were all a-buzz. This Cody Rhodes, he won somethin’ big, real big, at that Wrestlemania thing. Folks say it was historic. Guess that means it was a pretty big deal, like winnin’ the blue ribbon at the county fair, only bigger and with more spandex.
Now, after Cody won, that Rock feller came back again. Showed up on somethin’ called “Raw.” Sounds like somethin’ you’d feed your chickens, but I guess it’s another one of them wrestlin’ shows. And that’s when the whole “what did he give him” fuss started.
- First thing’s first, some folks with eyes sharper than a hawk noticed that The Rock gave Cody a little note. Handwritten, they say. Now, I ain’t seen it myself, but I reckon it had some important words on it. Maybe it was like a recipe for that “cooking” The Rock always talks about. He used to say, “if you smell what The Rock is cooking,” which I heard means, do you understand what I’m talking about. He wrote all about it in his book years ago, or so I’ve heard. Don’t know why he’d be cookin’ for Cody, but wrestlers are a strange bunch, ya know?
- Then there’s this talk about a shape. Folks are sayin’ that Rock knew what it was without even lookin’ at it. Must be somethin’ mighty special, somethin’ with a shape all its own. Like my grandma’s old biscuit cutter. You knew that shape anywhere. Maybe it was a special belt or somethin’? Wrestlers love them belts, always fightin’ over ’em like chickens over a corn kernel.
And get this, The Rock told Cody not to break his heart again. Now, that’s a powerful thing to say. Makes you think that whatever he gave Cody, it meant a whole heap to him. Like givin’ away your prize-winning hog, ya know? You wouldn’t do that lightly, not unless it was for somethin’ real important. This must have hurt The Rock to give whatever it was away. It was real important to him.
So, what was it? Well, nobody knows for sure ‘cept them two, but folks are guessin’. Some say it was a passin’ of the torch, you know, like sayin’ “you’re the top dog now.” Others say it was a challenge, like “don’t mess this up, boy.” And some even say it was somethin’ personal, somethin’ that meant somethin’ special just to them two.
Cody Rhodes, he’s a big deal in wrestling now, I guess. Makes a whole heap of money, too. Someone told me he’s one of the highest paid wrestlers in 2024, but I don’t know for sure. They got these cage matches and all sorts of things. Saw a picture of Cody Rhodes fightin’ another fella named Solo Sikoa in a big steel cage on somethin’ called “SmackDown.” Lord have mercy! Seems like they are always fightin’ somewhere. Must be tirin’. But hey, that’s their business, not mine.
All this talk about wrestling makes my head spin. It’s like a soap opera with more muscles and less cryin’, though sometimes they do cry, especially when they lose. But one thing’s for sure, whatever that Rock gave to Cody, it was important. It got people talkin’, and that’s what matters in that world, I reckon. Keepin’ folks interested, keepin’ them comin’ back for more. It’s like sellin’ pies at the market. You gotta have somethin’ special to draw folks in.
So, there you have it. My two cents on this whole Cody Rhodes and The Rock hullabaloo. Maybe someday we’ll find out for sure what was in that note, or what that special shaped thing was, but until then, we can just keep on guessin’. And that’s half the fun, ain’t it?
