In a recent episode of his podcast titled “The Snake Pit”, WWE Hall of Fame member Jake Roberts shared his thoughts on Cody Rhodes’ use of an expletive when addressing The Rock earlier this month at the WWE Elimination Chamber event in Toronto.
Here are some key takeaways from the podcast:
In the context of the controversial language used by Cody Rhodes during his Elimination Chamber address, Roberts opined, “There’s no need for it. No, I don’t think so. I mean, he could have said ‘Drop dead’ or anything, you know. I mean, you just — the big thing is, he’s saying, No, you know, that’s the big thing.”
When pondering the possibility of Rhodes offering a middle-finger salute, Roberts remarked, “You know, he could have flipped him off… Right. But for your kids that are watching, ‘Go f**k yourself’ is kind of strong.”
