5 Things that must happen at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 11

3: ‘The American Nightmare’ Cody Rhodes hits the ground running

2017 could be the year of Cody Rhodes

Kenny Omega unveiled the newest member of the Bullet Club in December at the 2016 World Tag League Finals and revealed him to be none other than former WWE Intercontinental Champion, Cody Rhodes.

Deeming himself ‘The American Nightmare’, Rhodes will look to assert his dominance on New Japan and establish himself as a player in the coming months. His debut against former NXT Superstar Juice Robinson has been hyped up and he couldn’t expect a better way to integrate himself into the NJPW roster than as a Bullet Club member.

Expect Cody Rhodes to impress upon his debut and make short work of Robinson. Rhodes has a chip on his shoulder and something to prove to WWE officials and management and he will stop at nothing till he achieves what he’s set out to.
