WWE superstar Cody Rhodes, also known as the American Nightmare, has once again proved why he remains a beloved hero to many members of the WWE Universe. The Undisputed WWE Champion recently took to social media to share a heartwarming birthday post from a young fan who celebrated the special day with a Cody Rhodes-themed cake.
The cake, shaped like a wrestling ring, featured action figures of Rhodes and Roman Reigns, making it a dream come true for any young wrestling enthusiast. The father of the lucky birthday boy is none other than Pixel Dan, a popular YouTuber with over 300,000 subscribers, who primarily focuses on toys and action figures.
In a surprising coincidence, WWE is set to release a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover figure collection this summer, which will feature some of the biggest WWE stars, including Seth Rollins, Rey Mysterio, Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods, and Roman Reigns. Rhodes will be featured as Casey Jones, a character from the popular TMNT franchise.
In a recent interview, Rhodes opened up about his excitement when he first saw himself as an action figure during his rookie days in WWE. He recalled The Undertaker’s advice to keep every action figure made of himself, which inspired him to do the same. Rhodes also expressed his gratitude to Matt Cardona, formerly known as Zack Ryder, for maintaining a catalog of all his action figures.
The American Nightmare’s kind gesture towards the young fan has warmed the hearts of many in the WWE Universe, reminding everyone why he remains a fan favorite. As Rhodes continues to defend his title against top contenders like AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura, his hero status among fans is unlikely to fade anytime soon.
The birthday post, which has since gone viral, serves as a testament to the strong bond between WWE superstars and their fans. It’s heartening to see Rhodes, who has been on a tear in the WWE, taking time to appreciate and celebrate with his young fan. As the WWE Universe looks forward to the upcoming crossover figure collection, one thing is certain – Cody Rhodes will continue to be a hero to many, both in and out of the wrestling ring.
