I started to like Cody just before his heel turn, I think it was during a promo he and Hardcore Holly cut on Santino. That's when I first realized he could talk. I always liked him better than Ted Dibiase (except for Ted's first few appearances).

Now he's taken a pretty offbeat character and absolutely run with it. You're right he's amazing.

The only shitty thing is his name being Cody. They should call him something like The Magnificent Taint Swatter.

His promos are off the charts, and his matches are pretty decent too. He even had a decent match with Zeke Jackson a couple weeks ago. That's impressive.

I remember thinking that he'd never amount to much when he debuted, but I'm glad I was wrong.

The whole psychology behind his character with the transformation from slightly generic "dashing" persona to what we're seeing now is brilliant.

Just hope that he doesn't lose that extra spark when they eventually take the mask away, whenever that will be.

I think one thing that helps is that his character progression has all seemed pretty natural. From blue chip rookie, to Legacy member...and I guess the "Dashing" thing was a BIT of a jump, but they at least tried to justify it with the "divas poll'...to the Phantom of the Squared Circle...it all just makes sense. That's rare anymore.

Yeah, thing is WWE just gives up on so many guys now that this character progression just doesn't happen as much.

I enjoy him as well, but honestly his lack of knee pads for whatever reason is just so....weird. Like I cant watch him without jsut focusing on his exposed knees. It just looks....odd.

If you're not over the knee pads by now, the problem just might be you.

Judging someone for a speech impediment that he has no control over is not very nice, Mr. Wards.

Neither is comparing people to Rip Hamilton, now that you mention it. You're on time out until further notice.

And he wore Kneed pads for most of the time. During his BOBCORE and Legacy run he was rocking old school knee pads pulled down to his Tri Force Boots, sort of like 80s Flair or Terry Taylor circa UWF

20 years of watching Wrestling with a constant of Knee pads takes more than a couple dozen short Smackdown matches to get over.

My opinion hasn't changed since the last Cody Rhodes thread: I like him, but I wish he would wear kneepads. He looks weird/semi-naked when you can see his bear knees.

He's doing great right now. (IN MY OPINION) He had the match and performance of the night at Wrestlemania this year.

I don't know how much longer this mask thing can last though. I mean, eventually he has to lose it. Hopefully with as good of an angle as when he got it.

Anyways, hope he makes IC champ real soon.

I personally think Cody is talented in the ring, but I think his mic work is overrated. He does a decent job of getting his point over, but he overeacts too much and to me they seem generic. Not to mention his gimmicks thus far haven't really connected to his personality. The Dashing gimmick seemed to be closer to him, but this current masked delusional thing doesn't really scream next huge superstar.

He's clearly a decent wrestler, but I don't see him being the future or the next Austin or Rock WWE is looking for. He just isn't that charasmatic or entertaining to me...

I've always said he's better than DiBiase, I'm glad to say i've been proved right and it's not even a fair comparison anymore.

I think Cody's got an outside chance of winning the SD MITB. I know people are thinking Barrett but Rhodes has been on fire recently

Well, judging by most of the responses here, alot of ppl seem to think he's amazing. As it's concerned on the mic, I have to disagree. He's decent, but my point above was he's not as great as Austin or The Rock. So, to me the word "amazing" shouldn't be a word used to describe Cody at this stage of his career.

I'm not trying to be that guy that claims to have liked the guy well before he got popular...BUT, I remember Cody grabbed my attention during whilst inducting his father into the HoF.

yeah, he's always been capable with a microphone, acting lessons will help you that way. Shocking that more guys under contract don't do the same thing.

I think all anyones said(like me) is its amazing how he's progressed to this point in his career. But he aint bad on the mic either. Think its wrong to compare him to the likes of Austin/Rock as he's nothing like those two.

I think his so called "progression" is subjective to opinion. While I do agree he took advantage of a bad character change, he's nothing more than mediocre IMO. His promo work isn't anything special, b/c each one is essentially the same. With some experience on the mic, he may improve, but as of now calling him "amazing" is a stretch. I actually think it's appropriate to compare him to Austin/Rock, b/c to be considered a top star, you have to have charisma. He seems way too bland on the mic and lacks the ability to be a comfortable speaker. Again, that may improve in time, but for now, he IMO is nothing more than a good wrestler...

I'm gonna have to agree with captaincharismark here. I love me some Cody Rhodes, but i think "amazing" is kind of a stretch.

Cody Rhodes is pretty decent. His promos are good but the lack of knee pads are holding him back. Knee pads=success.

He is already a "comfortable speaker" IN MY OPINION.

Comparing him to Austin/Rock in any way is a bit of a stretch.

He should form a tag team with jack swagger called the Seriously Sweet Super Team. Imagine them saying that with their lisps!
