Gunther vs. Cody Rhodes: The Clash in Italy
11 days agoUS
Cody Rhodes is set to defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Gunther at Clash in Italy. The match presents an opportunity for both wrestlers to redefine their trajectories, with potential long-term implications for WWE storylines.
Key Insights
•
Gunther aims to protect what he considers the "sacred sport" from people like Cody Rhodes, viewing Rhodes as an "entitled brat" due to his perceived nepotism.
•
Rhodes argues that Gunther desires the attention and weight that comes with holding the WWE Championship, contrasting Gunther's image with his own experiences.
•
A Gunther victory could re-establish him as a dominant force, potentially leading to matches with up-and-comers like Je’Von Evans and Bron Breakker.
•
Cody Rhodes may be better suited in the chase mode for a title, and a loss could put him back on that path.
In-Depth Analysis
The match between Cody Rhodes and Gunther at Clash in Italy carries significant weight for both competitors. For Gunther, a victory would revitalize his image after what some perceive as rudderless booking following his retirement of John Cena. It could establish him as a formidable, final-boss-type champion, ready to face any challenger. WWE seems to forget, but he is the guy who retired John Cena. Hello? This could also open doors for feuds with newer talents, providing them with a major boost.
Cody Rhodes, on the other hand, has experienced a mixed bag of booking decisions, including an unexpected title loss to Drew McIntyre and a somewhat underwhelming WrestleMania main event. A loss to Gunther could return Rhodes to his more compelling "chase mode," allowing him to pursue the title once again as the underdog.
Sami Zayn was also involved in the SmackDown before Clash in Italy. Zayn had a discussion with Rhodes and questioned why Rhodes didn't apologize to him.
