This is The Busted Open Podcast.

You can listen to the full show Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon Eastern on Sirius XM

Fight Nation Channel 156. Welcome to The Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGrecca.

On today's episode, it's a Thunder Tuesday. That's right. Thunder Rosa and I talk about Monday Night

Role and Cody Rhodes coming back at the Royal Rumble. Was it the right time to announce it on Role?

Should they have waited till the Royal Rumble? Also speaking of the Rumble,

are they opening up the door for another return? Maybe the return of the undertaker we discussed that

and speaking of the WWE, the biggest thing in the WWE and pro wrestling right now is the bloodline.

Off a junior joins us right now on The Busted Open Podcast.

First and foremost, I am super psyched. That Cody is back. I make, I listen. Everybody that listens

to this show knows I am the biggest Cody Rhodes fan. I love Cody Rhodes. The love is definitely

one way. He's not a big fan of mine, but I am a big fan of his, which is fine. But it's all about

the announcement. And I actually thought that was a cool video where they're like, hey, I'm back

and he said, I'll be back for the Royal Rumble. I be booked for the Royal Rumble. But no, it's fine.

But I am very surprised that they decided to make that announcement last night for a

couple of different reasons. One, as you were talking about, they're going up against the bucks

and the cowboys. And maybe there were a lot of people that weren't watching Monday Night Roll.

I could be wrong. Maybe wrestling fans don't give a shit, you know. But the other thing is how,

what a great surprise that would have been if Cody would have came back at the Rumble.

Like we're seeing all these vignettes about the surgery, about how much time it's going to take.

You know, what's the timeline? Nobody knows. Like listen, you could be the best athlete in the world.

It still takes time. That's what they're saying in these vignettes that we've been watching.
