00:04Cody Rhodes has reacted to the claims that he's a Republican.

00:07Speaking on comedian Burt Kreischer's BurtCast, reigning undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes

00:13recounted the backlash he received for a tweet he posted back in 2020.

00:18He posted a GIF with the caption, January 6th, bring it,

00:22on the day the U.S. Capitol in Washington was attacked following Donald Trump's loss in the 2020 presidential election.

00:29Cody Rhodes mentioned that the tweet was to promote Go Big Show, a television series he starred in.

00:34He noted that he wasn't aware of what was going on in the U.S. Capitol when he posted the tweet,

00:39but people took it out of context and ended up assuming he was a Republican.

00:43So the Capitol riots were January 6th, right?

00:47Go Big Show, we debuted the second season on January 6th, and it lives in infamy,

00:52especially because I'm... I try not to be on socials as much,

00:56but I still can get pretty gotten to about a moment here and there.

00:59But I put a GIF of me in ring, going like this,

01:03Come on!

01:04And all I wrote was,

01:05January 6th, and it's me doing that,

01:08because not enough people watch Go Big Show.

01:10Speaking further,

01:12Cody Rhodes said that his family has been moderate or liberal,

01:15and described himself as moderate.

01:18I can't explain to them.

01:19No, no.

01:21It was a show that we were doing,

01:22and it really checks the box,

01:24because there's a group of people that's just insisting on,

01:26That guy's clearly a Republican.

01:28He's had a Trump hat before.

01:30He has a neck tat.

01:31He's from Georgia.

01:32He's clearly...

01:33Whereas my family is super moderate.

01:36A fairly lifetime liberal family.

01:39We've been all over the map, sure.

01:41But those people...

01:43There's no way I'm convincing them.

01:45I mean, it's the U.S. flag on the side of my neck.

01:47It would be a waste of my time to try in life.

01:51Hey, well, I think a little differently than you'd perhaps perceive,

01:55but okay.

01:56I'm very moderate,

01:58so that means I have no voice.

02:00Like, no voice, Cody Rhodes said.
