In case you didn’t know…
Kenny Omega and Cody Rhodes’ on going rivalry initially began at last year’s Dominion 6.11 pay-per-view, when the latter tried to throw in the towel on behalf of Omega during his IWGP Heavyweight Championship match against then champion Kazuchika Okada.
Omega and Cody’s rivalry has certainly gone on to a whole new level over the course of this past year and the two men eventually faced-off against each other at this year’s ROH: Supercard of Honor, with ‘The American Nightmare’ coming out on top as the winner of the match, following interference from The Young Bucks.
Omega however eventually bounced back from his defeat against Cody in spectacular fashion when he won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship off Okada earlier this year at the Dominion 6.9 event, and thus marked the beginning of The Best Bout Machine’s first reign as IWGP Heavyweight Champion.
The heart of the matter
According to Cody, he feels that having an outstanding match against Kenny Omega is apparently the most important thing to ‘The American Nightmare’ in his pro wrestling odyssey right now. And NJPW is also seemingly the perfect place for Cody to learn several things, as he is nowhere near his ceiling right now. (H/T: Wrestling Inc)
In addition, Cody was also asked about his thoughts on Omega and Okada’s historic singles matches, with the two recently facing-off for the fourth time at NJPW: Dominion 6.9.
As per ‘The American Nightmare’, he feels that only time will eventually tell how actually feels about all four Okada vs Omega matches.
What’s next?
Kenny Omega and Cody Rhodes will compete in an IWGP Heavyweight Championship match later this month at the Cow Palace in San Francisco as part of the G1 Specials in the US.
