Cody Rhodes Talks About His Torn Pec
“I wanna say good, but misleading,” Rhodes told Brandon Davis. “It’s not like ACLs or PCLs where your life completely changes for a while.
After two weeks you feel like you’re normal, but it’s not. It’s just tied to your bone on your arm and you have to let it actually form. So they’re going so slow with me because I think they’re terrified I’m going to try to do something I’m not.
PT is slow. There’s an 80-year-old lady named Betty who does the PT with me, and she’ll be ready to wrestle before I’m ready to wrestle”. Rhodes tore his pec partially during a live event. This was during the week before the Hell in a Cell PPV event.
He then completely tore his pec off his bone when working out on the Friday before the Hell in a Cell PPV event. Rhodes hid the injury and the gruesome visual. He revealed the injury just before the cell lowered and the bell sounded for his Hell in a Cell match against Seth Rollins.
“No one saw, other than I think Vince saw it,” he said. “I was gonna take my robe off for cameras, and then the ‘voice of God,’ as you call it, whoever the head of the production is in that moment, I remember them saying, ‘Don’t,’ and Stu the camera operator said we were just gonna save it for the show.
Very few people had actually seen it and how bad it was, and through the day it was getting worse because it was so much blood, so much blood under my skin”. Cody Rhodes actually won the match that night against Rollins.
He then had to leave to get surgery performed to attach his pec. He did appear on the Raw after Hell in a Cell PPV where Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes seem to have mutual respect for each other. But then Rollins attacked Cody from behind and officially put him on the shelf.
