During his victory at the Royal Rumble 2024, Cody Rhodes encountered several prominent WWE stars, including members of The Judgment Day faction. The American Nightmare recently delved into a lethal move in the arsenal of a 33-year-old Judgment Day star.
Cody Rhodes entered the men’s Royal Rumble as a frontrunner, facing tough competition compared to the previous year’s edition. Outlasting the likes of Drew McIntyre, Gunther, and CM Punk, Rhodes secured his second consecutive Royal Rumble victory, besting members of Judgment Day in the process.
In an interview with Fightful, Cody Rhodes shed light on JD McDonagh’s prowess. McDonagh, a member of Judgment Day, has garnered attention for his infamous headbutt, with various WWE stars, including Kevin Owens, addressing it in the past.
Rhodes commended McDonagh’s athleticism, emphasizing his ability to balance his unique physical trait. He particularly highlighted McDonagh’s devastating headbutt, suggesting its potential impact on the main roster.
“I’m so glad that other people are talking about it because it was abnormal. And to me, he’s such a super athlete. What shocks me about his athleticism is how he’s able to balance the head on his body.
You got to do a lot of stuff and that headbutt which you saw a lot more of in NXT, which is obviously something you’ll see more on the main roster too. That headbutt’s deadly. Samoan level headbutt by JD,” Cody Rhodes commented.
