"The very compelling thing about Cody Rhodes and I is that there are parallels with completely different origins. They were very parallel journeys in a sense where we both had this huge thing looming over us that has no barring of what our ability is that we bring to the table. His being that he is the son of Dusty Rhodes and mine is being that I am married to someone [Mickie James] who is successful. Hey, no one was talking about that when I was the TNA World Heavyweight Champion and Mickie was sitting at home or when she was pregnant with our son, that wasn't an issue, but now and then I will get the Twitter troll who will say something like, 'Oh. Mr. Mickie James gets another chance?' Another chance at what? Believe me, it doesn't help. If anything, it is the opposite. It is not a help. That is not the way that I would want to go to WWE for example if that ever happens, but that is not the way I would want to go in."

Wasn't there a thread where he was talking about how they'd never sign him for some reason or another a few weeks ago? Being Mr. Mickie is probably the only shot he has being it's pretty much the only redeeming thing about him in 2018.

"The days of 'fake it till you make it' are over. You've got to be there on merit and have to create some interest in what you are doing."
Noble sentiment, but the very existence of Mike Bennett proves this wrong.

I wouldn't worry about that Nick. WWE won't hire you anyway.

Such a weird way to throw resentment around but I don't know, something tells me WWE isn't chomping at the bit to land "the guy Mickie James has kids with" the same way they wanted to make a star out of the son of the legendary Dusty Rhodes. Cody was born under a shadow and has to work his entire career to get out of it and be his own man, and in that regard he's got talents that I think have allowed him to do that just fine. Magnus has spent three years married to a female wrestler with a higher profile than him. Kind of overstating the shadow a little bit there. The more defining element is the fact everyone still calls him f***ing Magnus.

My G, they don’t want to bring you in as Mickie’s husband. They don’t want to bring you in at all, pimp

This definitely wasn't Magnus begging to get signed. Definitely definitely not.

I hope he does sign eventually, then they sign Aaron Solow, team them both up with Mike Kanellis and call them "Who We Foolin?"

I genuinely used to be a big fan of his in TNA (pre title reign), but he comes across like a knob with a chip on his shoulder in interviews.

This definitely wasn't Magnus begging to get signed. Definitely definitely not. "I just bought some new pens. To write out Christmas cards. Extra early." |
