Cody Rhodes was recently interviewed by Brian Soscha on MixPhiladelphia. Rhodes discusses his protective facemask and how it may have saved his life while taking a move from Randy Orton.

“Honestly, I learned the commitment from masked Cody Rhodes. The level of commitment I had to that was probably where I learned more about myself than anywhere else in my career. I felt more like myself under that mask. I was telling someone else this the other day. When the mask was removed, I felt like Master Chief. I felt like something was wrong with my face. This was real. My face was all un-tanned because I’d been wearing the mask so long. It was such an edge to me to have that mask and it saved my life, actually, to have that mask.

“The very last night I had it, Randy Orton kicked me so hard in what was supposed to be an unbreakable, Dr. Murray designed – the same doctor that made Kobe (Bryant) and Rip Hamilton’s mask – it was supposed to be unbreakable but it had a huge beak on it because it was for a broken nose. He cracked it straight down the middle. Had I not been wearing that mask, I might be dead. I mean it – he kicked me so hard and that was the last night I had it.”

Wow.

 

[Asskicker]

That's why he removed it...Randy makes people fucking tough.

Randy Orton kills Cody and still isn't fired? If he hadn't had that mask he would be dead. And people say Lesnar is dangerous.

 

[Asskicker]

Would be quite ironic if Randy Orton was fired for almost injuring/killing a superstar since he got mr.Kennedy fired...

 

[Snowman1]

Orton's so reckless... Wonder if this is why he isn't getting pushed anymore?

 

[Lockard 23]

Sounds to me like the idea was that Orton felt comfortable kicking him that hard because they said the mask was unbreakable. Blame the doctor perhaps.

 

[I'll See Ya Kia]

He has a nice face, I thinks

 

[Jose Tortilla]

He has a good face, indeed.

Orton is so stiff. Dunno how it happened. Back in the day, good seller, good worker..
All gone. :sad:

Orton, you reckless idiot. Cody is lucky he had the mask on.

Randy Orton could of killed Cody Rhodes

The hate for Orton in this thread is embarrassing. You're talking about the guy who in many people's opinion was the greatest wrestler in 2011. One bad move doesn't define him. Every single one of your marks has made a mistake that could have and perhaps did injure your college.

:dafuq:

Naa, just talking about how stiff the guy is nowadays. He used to be soo good in the ring. All gone.

Stiff? Have you seen who the guy has feuded with this year?

What decent wrestler has Orton had a feud with this year and underperformed against? His feud with Barrett was awesome, and he carried Barrett hard in the wrestling-aspects of that feud.

Yeah but he's countering too much. Ain't groggy when he's Irish whipped to the corner. He just walks out of it and kicks or punches the opponent.

 

[Crayo]

Because of his opponent. It's not like when he was with Christian where he could throw him on the top rope, where Christian would counter with an awesome move. He's working with real stiff big guys - expect it to suck. His match with Kane was one of the best matches this year, WITH KANE. Lol. Orton is in my opinion the most underrated WRESTLER in WWE. He's up there with the Bryan's, Ziggler's and Punk's.
