Cody Rhodes comments on a “bad habit” that he feels the wrestling business has

During an interview with 2 Bears, 1 Cave, Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes commented on wrestlers doing “crossover” appearances in other forms of entertainment…

“Wrestling has a bad habit, and this is in all companies everywhere, of not understanding [that] we’re in a bubble. There’s a whole outside world, there’s multiple mediums of entertainment, don’t be in a bubble. Don’t be afraid to do a little crossover, pure hardcore wrestling fans may not love it but there’s something on the show that’s for them already. I’m not burying where I formerly was [AEW] but not understanding the power, the magnitude of new eyeballs and crossing over.

Also, I hate gatekeeping when it comes to what we do. One of the things I do really like about pro wrestling fans and sports entertainment, I wish the locker rooms would feel this more, we welcome [new fans], please [come to a show].”
