Cody Rhodes Shares Heartwarming Birthday Gesture From Seth Rollins

Ariel Helwani caught up with Cody Rhodes for a short chat following Saturday night’s Money in the Bank 2023 pay-per-view event, where he defeated Dominik Mysterio in singles action.

Reflecting on his birthday the day prior, Cody shared a heartwarming gesture by on-screen (and seemingly off-screen) rival, Seth Rollins. He said,

“Newcastle was a great vibe, and, you know, it’s one of those birthdays where you kinda want less attention on the birthday. But it was very nice. I came back, and someone who has no reason to like me, and we don’t necessarily get along, that being our World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, had a cake provided for me from the production team. I got to blow the candles out, and I made a wish, the whole deal. So, it was nice.” 

When asked whether it was a bit of a swerve there with Seth being the one to provide the cake, Rhodes replied,

“Yeah, you know, I think, I don’t know. Maybe we’ll end up growing to be friends at some point. We’ve got daughters. I love Becky [Lynch], I do. I just Seth just (…) But a great, great wrestler, [a] big-time superstar.”

With Seth Rollins also feuding with The Judgement Day’s Finn Balor, whom he beat at Money in the Bank 2023, as well as Mr. MITB Damian Priest, an alliance between the two rivals seems possible in the coming weeks.
