Is it just me, or does Cody Rhodes seem robotic in the ring. I don't know if it seems like he is trying to be perfect in the ring, but he does not seem smooth at all.
I gues he may have been a little better last night, but he is almost hard to watch.
I hope he gets better, maybe he just needs to be more comfortable in the ring. Or quit getting black eyes, Either one.

First time in the bigs. He's nervous as a hooker in church. Young Master Randall Orton was the same way in the beginning. He'll loosen in time.

I couldn't disagree with you more, but like has been said, he did just start.

I agree that it's because he's "fresh meat" cough cough Pat Patterson cough but he does look like he has the skills, he just needs to relax in the ring. I'm sure it will happen, but for now Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto, domo...domo

He needs a unibrow. If it wasnt for Dusty, this kid would not be in the WWE, he doesnt have the look.

He moves like he's been trained well.

Cody puts more emotion and facial expressions into his matches than most do. He's no robot by any means.
He's also very good for the little experience he has and will no doubt be a headliner.

They should put Cody in the Goldust suit, just to make us appreciate Dustin more

i'm letting him slide cause he's a whole lot better than most other guys at this point. He wasn't even in OVW that long, and then they ship him to Raw and put him in some pretty big spots. He's done very well so far, but he's certainly not perfect right now. he'll improve over time, just wait.

Hey I think he probably is trained very well and his facial expressions are good too. He just seems kind of herky-jerky in his movements. I sure he will smooth out in the ring. The one thing I actually don't like is his twitchiness when he is selling. It looks unnatural.
Maybe he doesn't need the polka dots, but I'll bet Sapphire could loosen him up.

He's still feeling this out, I keep thinking how much the Rock was like this when he started as well.
My biggest issue is if he dosen't develop a personality soon, he'll just be Dusty's son for ever. Maybe he needs a partner, I'm thinking Jimmy Wang Yang.

He will improve, he is not great (yet) but good and I can see potential in him.

I love Cody Rhodes, he needs a Harry Potter gimmick seeing as he's like a gigantic fan.
