"The biggest takeaway is that Cody was here" - Charlotte Flair comments on Rhodes’ massive win at WrestleMania XL

SmackDown Superstar Charlotte Flair has opened up about Cody Rhodes' journey to becoming Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.

Rhodes finally became the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion on Night Two of WrestleMania 40 by dethroning Roman Reigns. The intense battle saw several twists and interferences as it was contested under Bloodline Rules.

In an interview with ESPN, Charlotte Flair said The American Nightmare was in the right place in his career and his story had just begun. She also compared Rhodes' journey to Paul Heyman's.

"I really think his story is just beginning. He’s exactly where he should be. The biggest takeaway is that Cody was here. He went away, he came back. Kind of like Paul Heyman’s speech at the Hall of Fame -- People kept telling him, ‘No, no,’ or things kept failing. That never wavered his confidence. Cody is a testament to knowing your worth."
