If Triple H’s “Plan B” worked, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns are
currently scrambling like ants that just had their hill kicked over.
What they need right now is someone who will hold them together. Who
they need is Cody Rhodes.
A natural leader who has spent too much of his career being led, the second-generation competitor has a veteran’s instinct in the body of a young gun — just like Seth Rollins. But he also has more polish than the onetime Architect of The Shield and his risks are more calculated.
It’s true that he’s been slumping as of late, but Rhodes is the type of athlete who thrives — almost exclusively — in dare-to-be-great situations. If he’s missed the mark recently, it’s because he’s not being challenged. And the challenge that lies ahead of Ambrose and Reigns is the exact kind of do-or-die moment that forces Cody to live up to his boundless potential.
The Cody Rhodes that squared off with The Shield in December 2013 was the best Cody Rhodes we’ve ever seen. Aligned with them he could be even better. — RYAN MURPHY
