Cody at this point lacks a gimmick or a personality of any kind. He's talented enough and there are worse people you can get on a mic, so after he's done with Holly what do you think he should do? Turn heel, maybe get a gimmick and an actual wrestling outfit?

Buy a new moveset and change his finisher from DDT #4 to It Thrusts Down.

Cocky heel, cheat to win, whine, complain. Haven't seen a good one of those since Chris Jericho's last few years in WCW.

If anyone needed to be taken out back behind the head and shot then it's Cody Rhodes. I think him and HBK should have a retirement match and right before he goes to hit the final SCM HBK mouthes, "I hate you. You suck." That would be the best way to end Rhodes' career before I have to sit through another fucking Rhodes/Holly anything.

On a serious note though I really have no clue what they should or could do with him. The obvious thing would be to turn Holly heel and have him and Rhodes feud, which really wouldn't be that great imo. They could surprise people and turn Rhodes heel, but I don't think most people even care about Rhodes so it's not like it would be this big, shocking thing. But really I don't know what to do with him. Is he good enough to feud for the IC or the US? No, not even close to the level of a Jericho or MVP. So quite honestly I think they're going to stay as a tag team for a while because after the eventual split up and feud with Holly they pretty much have no storyline whatsoever for him.

Please tell me that's a joke.

Anyways, it's simple, Cody Rhodes should go to ECW. A lot of young stars are there such as Elijah Burke, Shelton Benjamin, Kofi Kingston, John Morrison, The Miz, etc... it would help him quite a bit as he could get in to feuds with Shelton Benjamin, John Morrison, Elijah Burke to get him more experience. Atleast, that's what I'd do and that's what I think is best.

ECW is the ideal place for him, he could team up with Harry Smith and have a feud with Miz and Morrison. As for the breaking of Cody and Holly, I don't think it'll be for awhile, because they're already hinting a split between Cade and Murdoch, and I don't think that they'll break up two teams so close to each other.

Turn him heel and then team him with DH Smith (who is also heel now) and have a sorta second-gen tag team.

I have an idea. How about those people stop bitching about him and stop hating on him?

People say he lacks charisma, has no wresting skills, ect. I disagree.

If his name was Cody Jones, we wouldn't even have this thread.

But because his last name is Rhodes you all expect him to be like the American Dream. Well I got news for you, nobody can get like Dusty Rhodes. It's hard for Cody, who is one of the youngest guys on the roster, to follow in his dad's foot steps. People act like he's been around for years stinking the place up. No, Flair was around for four years stinking the place up. Cody is still very young. If enough time given, he wont be as good as his dad, but he could be as good as his brother if not better. Cody will be good some day. So just stop hating because he isn't as good as his father.

EDIT:

Actually, Christian was the most recent of that I think. He played that in WWE around 2003-his endding in WWE.

He should go full blown with the second gen feud.

In another note, WWE can also put him in a feud with X heel, after the X heel attacks backstage Dusty Rhodes. Hey, the last time Cody was cheered was when he stood up for his dad against Randy Orton
