Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes has been busy performing media duties ahead of his title match against Randy Orton in the main event of Night One. The American Nightmare recently appeared on the Your Mom’s House podcast, where he was confronted with a rather odd question.

During the conversation, the female co-host inquired about the nakedness in the WWE locker room. Cody said that he hasn’t been to the current locker room, as he now owns a bus. He also wondered if modern-day locker rooms are as naked as the ones in the past.

“This sounds pretentious, but I haven’t been in the locker room in a while because I have a bus. I have my own little locker room. I don’t know if the modern locker room is as naked as the old school locker room,” he said.

Cody Rhodes reveals his father, Dusty Rhodes, used to have just cowboy boots on in the locker room

“My dad [Dusty Rhodes], there are all these stories about… because he was also the creative director, the booker of the show, so you’d come to him and ask, ‘What’s the finish? What are we doing?’ He is famous for always being in his cowboy boots and naked while telling them. And everyone has a story, but they were a far more naked bunch. Wrestling is, I don’t know, if comedy is the same, but wrestlers are always working. There’s always a bit of wrestling going on. I think that nakedness, believe it or not, was a disarming tactic, a way of, ‘I’m so confident.’ I don’t know. But I don’t think so because he wasn’t like that around the house.”

He signed off by stating that “the locker room’s gotta be naked.”
