I saw his promo on Smackdown yesterday, and I couldn't stop thinking Mankind. Did anyone else think this, if not entirely at least slightly?

Yeah, ever since the knee-brace incident, there has been something very Foley-esque about his promos, which is excellent.

Yeah. He has a pretty similar style of speech since getting the mask which is awesome.

I think I'm now officially marking for Cody Rhodes.

I think I'm now officially marking for Cody Rhodes. Me too. I am deeply saddened by the vicious attack Mysterio unleashed on Cody Rhodes, destroying his dashing looks. I hope Cody DESTROYS him at Mania!

Now he just needs two more personas.
I want to see the Rhodes Scholar, and Rocky Rhodes.

How can you cheer this disfigured freak? A man who, wherever he travels now, inspires the cries of children and the lamentation of their mothers. Pitchforks and torches, people. Pitchforks and torches.

Yeah I made the comparison to Foley too, that last last promo was so much like Foley it really was great!
I remember when Cody Rhodes started in WWE in that tag team with Hardcore Holly, I really didn't like him then and neither did the IWC if I remember correctly. Obviously this was due to his wrestling and mic skills etc but also, for me anyway, it was his look. He looks scrawny and doesn't look like a threat to others much like Foley did but obviously with a different body type.
But yes Cody has come on leaps and bounds and after last night I can now say I definitely a Cody Rhodes fan!

Pitchforks and torches. It's not whether you're Dashing on the outside... It's about whether you're Dashing...on the inside.

Can't say I was reminded of Foley, but loved his promo on Smackdown and the disfigured gimmick is really cool. I remember back when Joey Mercury got his face caved in by Jeff Hardy in that ladder match a few years back, I thought they should have done this exact gimmick with him. Although I don't think he could have carried it half as well as Cody is at the moment.

Cody gave off a great American Psycho vibe last night. The suit, the tone of his voice and his demeanor were spot on for a guy who seemed like he's on the verge of losing it, but still seemed normal enough to function in everyday society. I really hope he tries to feed a cat to an ATM next week.

I've liked Cody for a while but this feud with Rey is gonna make a star out of him. Good stuff so far.

He should totally wear Mankind's old mask. Hell, if Foley ever returns to WWE, there's a ready made feud.
