Kevin Owens Snaps, Attacks Cody Rhodes In Parking Lot After WWE Bad Blood
WWE Bad Blood 2024 went off the air with Cody Rhodes standing tall, but the Undisputed WWE Champion was left reeling after the PLE. In the main event, Rhodes and Roman Reigns defeated Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu, thanks to an assist from the returning Jimmy Uso. In the closing moments of the show, The Rock returned and stared down Reigns, Rhodes, and Uso from the entrance ramp.
In fan-recorded footage from Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, Rhodes and Owens can be seen having heated words before Owens strikes the Undisputed WWE Champion. Not finished, the Prizefighter pummelled Rhodes outside the latter’s tour bus before security intervened.
Tensions had been growing between Rhodes and Owens for weeks on WWE SmackDown, with the Canadian taking issue with Rhodes’ willingness to team with Roman Reigns. Owens has his own painful history with Reigns, including defeats to the Original Tribal Chief at the Royal Rumble in both 2021 and 2023.
Owens challenged Rhodes for the gold at WWE Bash in Berlin, and much was said about their friendship and Owens’ lack of championship gold as of late in the run-up to their showdown in Germany. With Owens betraying his former friend, Rhodes now has another adversary to deal with on SmackDown. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the fallout of this attack.
