Cody Rhodes Comments on Hoping WWE Splits Up Undisputed WWE Universal Title After WrestleMania 39

A recent episode of the Bart Winkler Show podcast had Cody Rhodes as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Rhodes’ thoughts on him feeling that after next month’s WrestleMania 39 event would be a good time for WWE to split up their Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

“What it will take for the titles to eventually be separated is, this happened in boxing years ago, maybe whoever is coming out of WrestleMania…obviously, I want to say with the most confidence in the world that it’s going to be me, but maybe who leaves WrestleMania, it’s time for perhaps management to step in and make that call so that you never put it on potentially me or potentially Roman Reigns to say, ‘I want this one more than the other.’ Of course, the fan in me, I want my hands on the WWE Championship, its the one that [Dusty Rhodes] never got, but it would take someone telling me, ‘we have to go this way, both brands need a title.’ Once you have them, [Roman Reigns] threw them down in front of me the other day and I felt my heart jump. For real, how sincerely I love these title belts that I’ve never touched. That’s a good time for maybe management to step in. If they did, I’d be all about it.”
