Watch: What Happened With Cody Rhodes After 3/22 SmackDown Went Off Air

ByAnutosh BajpaiProfessional Wrestling Journalist

Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso had a lot of fun together after this week\’s episode of SmackDown from the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The former Bloodline member was part of a dark match after the show tonight where he faced the Intercontinental Champion Gunther.

Jey managed to get the upper hand after a lot of struggle and he went for a top rope splash on the Ring General. However, his momentum was halted by the appearance of Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa.

The duo distracted their former partner which allowed Gunther to pick up the victory. They went on to attack Jey as the IC Champion retreated to the back.

When Cody Rhodes came out to make the save, Solo bailed out on his cousin, leaving Jimmy to fend for himself. The Bloodline member tried to save himself by joining the ranks of Cody and Jey but he was ultimately taken out.

The American Nightmare then cut his usual promo and noted that he did not have anything to give away this time. The Royal Rumble winner then decided to give away both his shoes to fans in attendance.
