Cody Rhodes says beating R-Truth is part of “Completing His Story” in WWE

Cody Rhodes as Stardust lost quite a few times to R-Truth during his past WWE 24/7 Championship run.

This is something that “The American Nightmare” has not forgotten.

During a recent interview with Fightful.com’s Sean Ross Sapp, the WWE Universal Champion explained that he won’t be able to “finish the story” until he defeats R-Truth or gets some measure of revenge.

“So this is something that is a little bit exclusive here,” Rhodes said. “Not that I was Stardust, but if I was Stardust, I think Stardust lost to R-Truth 42 different times. Sometimes the matches lasted less than two minutes.”

Rhodes continued, “So when people say you have to finish the story, part of finishing that story is beating R-Truth. Right now I can’t touch him. Everybody loves R-Truth. He’s the man and I have to be, ‘Oh, great, R-Truth!’ But when you see R-Truth come into the Rumble and I just double leg him and take him down, you’ll know why.
