In a recent interview with The AJ Awesome Show to promote WrestleMania 39, WWE RAW superstar Cody Rhodes discussed several topics, including potential post-WrestleMania opponents for him.

“If I was to be so on my game, in the right spot at the right time, lightning striking, legit lightning in a bottle to be able to be the one guy who has beat Roman Reigns, because you’ve got to remember, Daniel Bryan and Edge couldn’t beat Roman at the same time, Kevin Owens was unable to do it, Sami Zayn so so close, Drew McIntyre was almost closer than Sami Zayn was, if I was to be so lucky as the one to beat him, I don’t want to look past him, but for the purpose of your question, there’s three.

We talked about one guy already, so we won’t even mention him, but two come to mind, one is Johnny Gargano and that is because when I was with my former company, I always remembered kind of going head-to-head with him on Wednesday’s, and when I say that, out of respect, you had to oppose him with something strong, because he delivers and he’s a wrestler’s wrestler, and I don’t even know what that means, but he’s someone that we never had to have that single and I’d love to have that with him just to see where I’m at, see where he’s at, very curious, different styles, so that’s one.

The other one is Edge and I’ve told some people that before, I don’t think I’ve told Edge that, because I don’t want it to seem adversarial or confrontational, but I don’t know how much time Edge has left, he could do this forever if he wanted to, he’s in better shape than, you know, ever locker room combined for some reason, but when I was on SmackDown, I remember he was a really good locker room leader, a true locker room leader, led by example and would be able to pull you aside for a note here and there, but wasn’t overbearing, but he looked at me as a child, a kid and those people that look at you as a kid, you want to one day stand opposed and let them know you’re not a kid any more and lately, we’ve been on the right side of things you know for example with The Judgment Day stuff, but he’s still one I’d just love to test it out, shake his hand and find out who’s better at the actual wrestling thing that we do. I mean, Hall of Famer, he’s the real deal and he’s in that lofty air that very few are in, and while he’s here again, he could be here forever, but while he’s here, I’d like to get that one.”
