00:00Go!
00:00Yeah, there's you right there!
00:02Pony Go!
00:04Go!
00:06World's most famous arena!
00:09The home of the WWE Championship!
00:13A place where the WWE Champion will always be present!
00:19Madison Square Garden, New York City!
00:22What do you want to talk about?
00:40It's not a Monday Night Raw with the Vlog Warriors!
00:44What a vlog!
00:45But I'm just not doing this bad cheeserative.
00:50Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby! Let's goby!
00:56Don't make me cry guys! It's not fair!
01:04I am surprised to see you here.
01:08I don't know why you would be surprised.
01:11I mean, the last time I checked, my name is Stephanie McMahon.
01:17And this is the house my grandfather built, Madison Square Garden.
01:49I am surprised to see you here.
02:00And this is the house my grandfather built, Madison Square Garden.
02:08And this is the house my grandfather built, Madison Square Garden.
02:25What do you want to talk about?
02:28Well, Cody, I want to talk about you.
02:30I want to talk about Randy Orton.
02:35And I want to talk about WrestleMania.
02:41Only you're not going to like what I have to say.
02:47Cody, you talked about where you used to sit at center stage in conversations that we've had.
02:53Well, I used to sit right over there.
02:56And Andre the Giant would walk by and squeeze my leg and give me the office as he comes to
03:02the ring.
03:02Because you, me, and Randy, we are multi-generational talent in this business.
03:08We understand what it means to be at the top in a different way than anybody else.
03:16We have different paths to get to where we are in this moment.
03:21But you, you chose to take the golden path.
03:25And that's amazing. It's wonderful.
03:28You stay true to yourself.
03:30You stay true to your values and who you are.
03:32And you actually believe that you can bring out the best in you.
03:36That you can bring out the best of your opponents in the middle of this dream.
03:41And for the most part you can.
03:44But you can't this time with this version of Randy Orton.
03:53This version of Randy Orton is diabolical.
03:59And Cody, you don't have to be diabolical, but you have to be able to think like that.
04:07You have to be able to think like Randy.
04:10Your father understood that better than anybody.
04:15Dusty Rhodes could roll with the best of them.
04:18He could get down and dirty with the best of them.
04:21But from what I've seen so far, you are not your father.
04:31This version of Cody Rhodes can't beat this version of Randy Orton.
04:42You have no idea who Randy Orton is.
04:46You have no idea who Randy Orton is.
04:48But I don't know who Randy Orton is.
04:51I know everything about Randy Orton.
04:55I know that he was the coal that became the diamond.
04:58I know he was the youngest world champion in company history.
05:02I know he was the legend killer by merit.
05:04I know he was punting people's heads off left and right.
05:08My own father included.
05:09I know he was doing stuff so violent and so vile on this very show that we can't show it
05:15today.
05:16And I know that some of that stuff was to you.
05:24And I know there's a whole swath of the WWE Universe of pro wrestling fans who want this whole student
05:31-teacher dynamic.
05:32But I ceased to be the student a long time ago and it wasn't when I won the WWE Championship.
05:36It's when I became a babysitter.
05:39When I had to reach over the car, turn the volume down just to make sure he was breathing while
05:44he drooled all over himself.
05:46I am not the student.
05:48I am not afraid of Randy Orton.
05:51I am not walking into my very first Wrestlemania main event.
05:54You want to bring up fathers?
05:56I'm not mine.
05:57You're right.
05:58Stephanie McMahon with all due respect.
06:00You're not yours either.
06:03Whoa!
06:08If you can learn to actually think like Randy, then you are going to lose that title.
06:18And Wrestlemania will be the last time Kobe Rose is introduced as the undisputed WWE Champion.
06:52Stephanie McMahon, I've got two words for you.
07:05Thank you!
07:07Thanks, man!
07:14You said just guesst
07:15you
