Cody Rhodes Set for Major Feud in WWE SmackDown Spoiler
Cody Rhodes is poised to enter a significant wrestling rivalry as he gears up for a feud on WWE SmackDown. Recent reports indicate that Aleister Black will be the next competitor to challenge Rhodes. This development follows Black’s heel turn and his recent partnership with his wife, Zelina.
Cody Rhodes’ Recent Success
Rhodes, known as “The American Nightmare,” recently defended his Undisputed WWE Championship title against Drew McIntyre at “Saturday Night’s Main Event.” This successful defense was not without its controversies. McIntyre argues that a title rematch is warranted due to the unusual circumstances of their last match.
Controversial Match Against Drew McIntyre
- Rhodes executed a DDT that caused McIntyre to hit his head on the championship belt.
- McIntyre had previously brought the title into the ring, attempting to use it as a weapon.
- The referee was incapacitated during this altercation, complicating the outcome.
Rhodes reclaimed the Undisputed WWE Championship by defeating John Cena at “SummerSlam 2025.” This victory marked the beginning of his second title reign. Since then, he has successfully defended his title two times:
- First against McIntyre at “WrestlePalooza.”
- Second at “Saturday Night’s Main Event.”
Looking Ahead: Cody Rhodes vs. Aleister Black
As Rhodes moves forward, the rivalry with Aleister Black presents new opportunities. Black is also entwined in a storyline involving Damian Priest, having recently attacked Priest by throwing a fireball at him during the October 10 episode of SmackDown.
With McIntyre potentially sidelined, the landscape of the SmackDown title picture could shift dramatically. WWE fans can look forward to the evolution of Rhodes and Black’s rivalry in the coming weeks.
