5 things we learned from Cody Rhodes on E&C's Pod of Awesomeness

#4 Christian was his favorite opponent in WWE

Cody and Christian always worked well together

Cody was a good wrestler in WWE, who probably did not receive all the opportunities he would have wanted. However, he says that the people who work hard enough do get rewarded. It is well documented that Cody believes that WWE do not hold talent back and that he still loves the company he used to wrestle for.

He had quite a few great matches in WWE, most of them being tag team matches. He did have some fun singles matches against a variety of opponents. From the wrestlers he shared the ring with in WWE, his favorite was Christian. And this isn't just because he was speaking to him, Christian is one of the smoothest in-ring competitors in WWE history and is very well-respected among his peers.

They worked a lot together throughout 2010 when they were both on Smackdown. However, the matches Cody and Christian had in 2012 over the Intercontinental Championship are much better remembered. Their series of matches were some of the best IC Title bouts in the early 2010s when the title was not in a very good state.
