Five-time champion attacks Cody Rhodes on WWE RAW

The American Nightmare took to the ring on Monday Night RAW this week to cut a promo, thanking his WarGames teammates. He acknowledged the efforts of Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins, Jey Uso, and a returning Randy Orton for the win over The Judgment Day in the men's WarGames match.

He officially became the first WWE Superstar to declare himself for the Men's Royal Rumble. However, Cody's promo was cut short by a backstage video package of Shinsuke Nakamura, in which The King of Strong Style revealed the top babyface as his target.

Soon after the video stopped playing, Cody turned around and saw Nakamura, who attacked The American Nightmare with red mist. The latter was left struggling on the mat, kicking off a highly-anticipated feud between the two superstars on the red brand.
