What were Mark Henry's initial thoughts on GUNTHER's promo?
What's going on, guys? This is World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry, and SmackDown is in Spain, and I'm gonna break it down right now. This is the Busted Open Podcast. What Gunther said was very, it was true, for lack of a better term. Gunther is not lying. What he's saying is there is no lies. The promo that he had in the ring tonight, was basically him saying Cody was handed everything. That he was one phone call away from going and getting wrestling training. That he was one call away From getting a job with WWE that he was one call away from title matches and the success that he achieved. But Cody, there was no lies. There was no lies. But Cody did not.
rebuttal the way that i would have you you have some of that sound andre from uh gunther play that please and i promised your big role model and hero john cena that i would make him tap out and i did and now i'm promising you That on Sunday, I'm going to choke you out. I'm going to drop you like a wet towel. I'm going to take this precious prize with me.
Whoa. Okay, I think the star of the promo was the little kid in the background that was so loud that he was able to sneak in exactly what he thought. That Gunther, you suck. And that was not in Spanish because, of course, I don't speak Spanish. But I thought it was pretty damn cool that that kid was able to get his little two cents in.
That kid got bleeped out, by the way. Because in the middle of that promo, he said, STFU, straight to Gunther, clear as day. Wow, I'm glad they edited it. It wasn't just a one, like, shut the F up. It was shut the F up, clap, clap, clap, clap. So they had to bleep the kid.
Oh, so they edited it out. Nice, nice. Well, Cody rebuttaled. And I was not satisfied. with what Cody said. But let's hear from Cody, and then I'll get to that.
I know that you want it. Otherwise, I'd be talking to a 330-pound version of yourself in front of a couple hundred people at an indie show. But instead, I'm talking to the most refined, most dangerous, the peak form of an athlete that you have made yourself.
Yeah, I get it. It's a little sensationalism on the end right there. Um, but he may reference to Gunther being, uh, big Gunther. I, in my opinion, I think Cody should have been, he shouldn't not worried about Gunther being refined and him losing the weight. And now, um, w w what's wrong with, with wrestling the Indies. What's wrong with wrestling in front of 250 people? You've gotten so refined that you're above working in front of 250 people now? It made him sound like a heel to me. I've been saying this for months, almost a year. The stuff that Cody says is very arrogant and offsetting. Now, if he wanted to really, really, oh, he's Homelander. He is 100% Homelander now. If Cody wanted to resonate with the masses, he should have said that, Gunther, you've evolved.
You've changed. You had it rough. But you don't have it nowhere near as rough as you used to. See, you talk about me being one phone call away. You still have your father. You can make that one phone call. I don't. You talk about me making one phone call to get it done. In order for me to make one phone call, I gotta be close enough, good enough, refined enough
How did Cody Rhodes respond to GUNTHER's accusations?
Not troublesome in order to be able to make that phone call. And even then, I got fired. I got told to hit the road. And then I had to reinvent myself. There was nobody to call then. I had to do it. And I did. I started another company. which is now our competition, by the way. And then I said, you know what? I need to go home. And I didn't make a phone call, but they called me. I'm beyond making calls. I'm Cody damn Rose. He should have went into that. The crowd would have came along with him, Andre, for the ride. Put Gunther in his place. Man, I guarantee you, Andre, at some point, I'd be like, hell, I don't know what to call you, Gunther or Walter. I said you're refined. Maybe I'm better talking out to Gunther.
He had ambition in class. He didn't sneak up behind anybody. He never tried to choke me from behind. He would have stepped to my face. Maybe you need to go look in the mirror.
