Cody Rhodes is two different people

Cageside Seats • WWE

WWE said we would be getting a sit down interview with Cody Rhodes on Friday Night SmackDown this week, with the man who calls himself QB1 responding to his indecision in punting Randy Orton’s head off his shoulders. It cost him, as he lost the match because of it. What does that do to a guy? Well, here’s what we got on the broadcast: Buttoned up Cody, doing his best to put a brave face on, saying all the right things, acting like the top babyface trying hard to represent the company the right way. He gets progressively more upset as the interview goes along, and ends things by saying when the situation with Orton comes up again “I’m not going to make the same decision I made at Sunday Night’s Main Event.” He seems almost troubled by that as he thanks Michael Cole for the interview and they fade out. And then Triple H went online and posted this: Sometimes you need to keep the camera rolling to get to the truth. @CodyRhodes #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/Jrvwd3rAWz — Triple H (@TripleH
