Has Cody Rhodes given away a WWE secret?
The American Nightmare most recently had Chelsea Green on the latest episode of his podcast. Among other things, he talked about his technique for mentoring young talents, specifically giving praise to one Carmelo Hayes.
The former WWE champion described Melo as a ‘rein-them-in’ type of talent but claimed that he doesn’t actually rein them in. Cody Rhodes noted that his approach is to let the talent try out new ideas and then later explain to them what they did wrong:
Probably my favorite, and I can’t wait ‘til he comes on the podcast, I’m super hot about not getting invited to his wedding, but, Melo. Melo has so many ideas. And you never want to be the guy like, ‘That ain’t gonna work. Maybe we try this.’
You never want to do that. He’s one where I’ve done it the wrong way with him. I probably should have, but I’ve just enjoyed like, ‘Yeah, let’s try that, man. Like, yeah! Why not?’ And he’s such a go-getter, and passionate…he’s a really fun one.
Maybe It Is A Secret: Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes then made an interesting comment about his current direction on TV, saying that he has dropped hints about a potential new group on WWE programming that haven’t been picked up by fans:
I’m very happy for him. It’s no secret, I’ve been actively trying to maybe get like a little bit of a group on TV. Well, maybe it is a secret. I’ve thought I’ve Easter-egged it multiple times, but I’m not doing it hard enough.
A potential heel turn for Cody Rhodes has been a prominent topic of discussion among fans for some time now. So Rhodes is probably already regretting giving away the idea of starting a faction.
On the other hand, ‘Raheem’ Rhodes is well aware of internet culture, so maybe this is his way of getting a discussion going to force creative’s hand.
