He’s a star. There are all kinds of wrestlers on the WWE roster but only a few make it to the top of the list. Those are the names that WWE is going to want to present on major stages, including those outside of wrestling. It can be a big deal when one of them gets to show up on a prominent entertainment show and that was the case this week, as a top WWE name made a special appearance.

WWE’s Cody Rhodes made a surprise appearance on the Tonight Show this Friday, appearing in the show’s Phone Boot sketch. Rhodes appeared in the segment with Ken Jeong, Dwayne Wade, Teresa Guidice and Philadelphia Flyers mascot Gritty. Rhodes was on the show to help promote this weekend’s Royal Rumble. He won the men’s version of last year’s namesake match and is involved in this year’s edition as well.
This was rather cool. Check out the segment and Rhodes doing his usual job:
Opinion: It’s always fun to see something like this as WWE does not get this kind of exposure very often. It also goes to show you how much Rhodes’ over the top outfits can help, as it makes him look like that much bigger of a star. This was a good way to go and I could go for seeing Rhodes doing more appearances like this, either in his ring gear or just wearing a suit and tie.
What did you think of the segment? What will Rhodes do at WrestleMania? Let us know in the comments below.
