Cody Rhodes has become one of WWE’s most popular babyfaces, but there’s also been talk of him potentially being a heel, which Ray fully endorses.

“You take so much of a risk when you try to do it. Does the WWE have the guts to try to pull it off? We shall see. Do they have the guts to turn Cody heel? We shall see. Is it the right time? I have told you since day one, I’ve been telling Cody to his face since we shared a locker room in Ring of Honor, I said, ‘Cody, you’re a heel. Cody hates everybody. Cody’s a heel,'” Ray said.

He also asserted why the current moment, when Rhodes is over with the fans as a babyface, would be the perfect time to pull off the swerve.

“He will make a phenomenal heel when the time is right. I don’t know if the time is right because I can only sit back and read the writing on the wall right now. I don’t know if it’s the right time. Cody is very much still loved by the WWE Universe. But is that the perfect time? Are we at the apex? Are we at the zenith of the love for Cody that they would never see it coming, and thus, we rip the carpet out from under them, and we take all of that love, and we turn it into hate.”

Rhodes had stated that his babyface run was coming to an end, and that The Rock even wanted him to turn heel, which gives more credence to the rumors of a heel turn.
