'You Are Overrated, Your Face Is Melting Wax': Cody Rhodes' Brutal Attack On John Cena Before WWE Wrestlemania 41 Viral; Video

WWE Undisputed champion Cody Rhodes and his Wrestlemania 41 opponent John Cena involved their final faceoff before their massive match in the grandest stage of them all. Rhodes reminded that the current era is a new one for the WWE and referred to the 16-time world champion as overrated.

Rhodes and Cena will clash in the second day's main event of Wrestlemania 41. Their seeds of their rivalry were sowed in the Elimination Chamber when Cena stunned the WWE universe by turning heel, attacking Cody, thereby siding with The Rock.

Cody Rhodes: "John Cena, no sabes el nombre de esa persona que te dio el micrófono. Ni a los del backstage. Esta es una WWE diferente. Pero como el GOAT casi ni ha aparecido desde Elimination Chamber, te lo diré. ESTÁS SOBREVALORADO. ESTÁS PEOR QUE STING EN STARRCADE 1997"… pic.twitter.com/p7gAqbrjmg

Speaking to Cena in the segment on the latest episode of WWE Smack Down, Cody said:

"Do you know his name? The one who hands you the microphone? You don't know her name either, do you? And I bet when you walk back stage, you don't know any of those people either. This is a different WWE, John and when it was your WWE, I worshipped you, they worshipped you but since the GOAT hasn't showed up since the Elimination Chamber, allow me to offer you a little perspective. You call me underwhelming, guess what, you are overrated. You are overbearing and more importantly, you are out of touch, out of time and your face is melting wax and you are paler than Sting at Starcade 97.
