Cody Rhodes wants the WWE United States Championship.
On the May 10 episode of WWE SmackDown, Logan Paul was revealed as the next challenger for Cody Rhodes’ Undisputed WWE Championship. WWE announced that they would clash at King and Queen of the Ring. During a promo about the match, Rhodes hinted that he wanted to win Paul’s WWE United States Championship.
Cody Rhodes then took to Twitter to hype up the match. He simply wrote, “For all the gold.”
Rhodes also tweeted, “2 belts” to reiterate his interest in Paul’s title.
The official preview for the match, courtesy of WWE’s website, is as follows:
“At WWE King and Queen of the Ring, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes will go war against United States Champion Logan Paul in a Champion vs. Champion Match.
After heroically finishing his story by conquering Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, Rhodes immediately solidified his reign with a hard-fought title win over AJ Styles at Backlash France. Upon his return to SmackDown, he didn’t have to wait long to see who he would tangle with next, as SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis informed The American Nightmare that he will square off against Paul in Saudi Arabia.
Rhodes stands at the top of the mountain, the standard-bearer to a whole new era of WWE. The Social Media Sensation, however, has claimed that he is the reason for WWE’s recent success and that it has nothing to do with Rhodes. Now, titleholder will battle titleholder to see which one of those things is true.
WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
