Hey guys, this is Denise Salcedo with the world strongest man, Mark Henry, and welcome to The Busted Open podcast.

To kick off the show, Mark and I react to Drew McIntyre's first appearance as WWE champion on Smackdown.

This is the busted open podcast.

So Drew McIntyre, by the way, in its promo had stated that basically, there's a lot to get into, by the way, in regards to this title picture.

So we're going to kind of go a little bit everywhere.

But Drew McIntyre stated that Cody Rhodes does not have a rematch clause.

Is Cody Rhodes going to win the elimination chamber?

Unless maybe just maybe Drew McIntyre doesn't last long as champion I hope he does I don't know what's going to happen here but Mark what was your reaction to Drew McIntyre adding that additional piece in there because we didn't know well I thought it was great for Cody Rhodes because Cody gets to travel the less popular road now.

And, you know, one of the things that I said with Cody is, Cody has established himself as a tweener.

Like, he's kind of been very hillish.

And this is a road that he has to travel where he has to re-earned the respect and admiration

of the fan because of the journey he's taken.

If he has to go and win the rumble,

there's a lot that's going to happen and has to happen for that to happen.

He's also got the elimination chamber.

To be able, like now that he's not a guarantee,
