Speaking on the latest episode of his ARN podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer discussed every match and segment from WWE TLC 2010. The show featured a comedy segment which saw The Big Show remove Cody Rhodes’ suit in front of the live crowd.
Cody Rhodes reacted as though he was embarrassed by the situation, despite the fact that his underwear looked similar to his usual wrestling trunks. The Big Show laughed at his rival but the fans in attendance did not appear to see the funny side.
Anderson, who worked as a WWE producer at the time, now works alongside Cody Rhodes in AEW. He implied that the uncomfortable segment was an example of Rhodes being willing to do whatever he is asked.
Anderson added that Cody Rhodes’ WWE career went downhill after his Legacy storyline came to an end.

Cody Rhodes in The Legacy
The Legacy debuted in WWE in September 2008 and disbanded in April 2010. The group’s dissension led to a Triple Threat match between Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Ted DiBiase Jr. at WrestleMania XXVI. Orton picked up the victory to bring an end to the storyline, while Cody Rhodes moved to SmackDown shortly after the match.
Cody Rhodes continued to perform in various different roles in WWE over the next six years, including a stint as the Stardust character. He received his release from WWE in 2016 and went on to work for promotions including IMPACT Wrestling and NJPW. Nowadays, Cody Rhodes is an Executive Vice President in AEW.
