Kevin Owens says that Cody Rhodes is the person who is obsessed with being a top guy in WWE. Owens has been feuding with Rhodes and will face him at Saturday Night’s Main Event this weekend, and he spoke with the South Kongress Podcast ahead of the match. You can see the highlights from the discussion below, per Fightful):
On Rhodes calling himself QB1: “Just what you said now is a great example. Who calls themselves QB1? Who gets the letters QB stitched on their own jacket? There’s nobody going around calling Cody Rhodes the Quarterback, he’s calling himself that. I just find that so insane.”
On Rhodes being obsessed with being a top WWE guy: “It’s television, it’s a show, but a few weeks ago, he was standing in the ring when I was on the announce table talking about how I’m obsessed with being a top guy this and that. It actually shocked me how little he knows me in that he thinks that’s what I’m concerned with. Again, I think he can turn all of those things that he said to himself. He’s the one that left in 2016 because he wasn’t happy, didn’t like the opportunities, didn’t like the way he was portrayed, all that stuff. He came back, he was always obsessed with being the top guy, being the quarterback, whatever you wanna call it. I’ve been there, I was there, obsessed. I realized it wasn’t very healthy and eventually my point of view changed. I don’t know, there’s just a limit to how much arrogance I can take, I guess.”
