Add as a preferred source on Google Cody Rhodes still has not forgotten his old issues with R-Truth in WWE.
During a recent appearance on The Rich Eisen Show, the current Undisputed WWE Champion joked that he still wants a rematch with Ron Killings, claiming the veteran has been ducking him backstage.
According to Rhodes, the rivalry dates back to his days as Dashing Cody Rhodes and, more importantly, Stardust. The champion even said Truth has around 30 wins over him, making this one of the biggest unresolved issues of his career.
“A match I wish I could get my win back. This is a bit inside baseball, but this is the truth and he knows it. No pun intended. Ron Killings has been ducking me. And I whispered in his ear two weeks ago that I never forget anything. And he made my life a living hell when I was Dashing Cody Rhodes, when I was Stardust. And I think he’s got 30-some victories on me. Finishing the story, the term we have and Michael Cole coined at WWE really wasn’t about winning the WWE title. It’s about beating Ron, beating Truth. And when I do that, I’ll be complete. I can sleep at night after I beat Truth.”
For now, though, Cody has a much more serious task ahead. He will defend the Undisputed WWE Championship against Gunther at Clash in Italy, which takes place Sunday, May 31, at 2 p.m. ET and streams on the ESPN App in the United States.
