– Also announced: WWE Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan will explain her actions following last Monday’s explosive end!
– WWE’s numbers indicate that Cody Rhodes has surpassed John Cena – making Cody the company’s most successful babyface since Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock:
“Cody Rhodes outside of the ring is everything, he’s one of the best faces they have ever had and he’s drawing like it too.
“Look, his numbers are bigger than Cenas. So that would make him the biggest, most successful babyface since the Austin & Rock era.”

What “numbers” is Meltzer talking about? Ratings when Cody’s on screen? Social media followers? Merch sales? How exactly do you quantify who is the “biggest, most successful babyface,” which really seems like a subjective thing, especially when you’re talking across eras? Is there actually a way to measure it, or is this just another case of Meltzer stating his opinions/guesses as facts?
