Undisputed WWE Champion “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes appeared on the Pat McAfee Show to talk about a number of topics, including his Georgia Tech segment with Roman Reigns.
Rhodes said, “RAW being two hours again, the content being perhaps tailored a little differently, What you saw with Roman and I in that package [at Georgia Tech], that might be a direction the industry is going, and being old-school, those things used to…not for me, mini-movies and things of that nature.”
On the WCW mini-movies that Dusty Rhodes produced:
“Years and years ago, my dad had produced something for WCW called White Castle of Fear. Sting went to the mountains to meet Vader, and there was little people and turkey legs, and it was just this crazy scene. Heavily panned by the audience, to the point where I just thought maybe that’s not ever gonna be our world. We’re never gonna have that cinema, and then I saw this, and I thought how, especially with what Mr. (Paul) Heyman did with it and Adam Pennucci, I thought wow, this might be a little bit more of the direction. We didn’t play it silly, it wasn’t spooky or anything of that nature. This was straight-up two guys who really sincerely feel this way about each other having a conversation, let’s capture it.”
