Top 5 Reasons Why Cody Rhodes Will Retain the Undisputed WWE Championship on Friday
Cody is taking out the special guest referee himself. When Sami tries to screw him over, Cody drops him and retains the title anyway. No ref, no problem.
Rhodes will win using his own fashion. He’s doing it his way, with that American Nightmare style that only Cody has. Nobody else can pull it off like him.
Royce Keys is tearing Sami Zayn’s referee shirt and switching sides. He rips the shirt right off Sami, brings in a new referee who actually plays fair, and helps Cody get the W.
Cody will throw Sami Zayn straight into Gunther. Chaos in the ring, Gunther gets distracted, and Cody capitalizes to win the match right there on SmackDown.
The Captain is hitting a roll-up on both Gunther and the special guest referee. Pins them together, gets the three-count with a brand new referee, and walks out still the Undisputed Champion.
