Cody Rhodes believes his opponent in WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, Kevin Owens, is frustrated with him because of the suits he wears.

WWE Champion Cody Rhodes recently made an appearance The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote the revival of Saturday Night’s Main Event, airing December 14 on NBC. The champion discussed a number of topics including the evolution of WWE, the company’s new leadership and his plans for WrestleMania 40, where his mother will be in his corner. Rhodes praised Triple H, Nick Khan and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson for the return of the popular wrestling program and promised an unforgettable evening.

Not only are we bringing back an exceptional map, great games and a great show, but there might also be a few surprises here and there. Some things.

As the conversation shifted to his opponent in Saturday night’s main event, Kevin Owens, Rhodes delved into a playful but pointed anecdote about his signature style – particularly his penchant for suits.

I’ll tell you a story: I started wearing suits all the time. It was around 2015. It just became this thing. I wanted to represent wrestling and sports entertainment in a different way. So always fits, always inches.

While Rhodes emphasized that his wardrobe should not be pretentious, he suggested that some wrestlers, including Owens, may feel insecure about his clothing choices.

I usually say, “I think they have a problem with their masculinity.” If you know… I don’t want to use harsh language here. It’s Thanksgiving. Yes. I don’t want to say the word, you know… penis. But no one has been more frustrated and upset about me wearing suits than Kevin Owens.

Owens appeared to take the swipe in stride, responding to X with a photo of him wearing a John Cena T-shirt – a playful nod to Rhodes’ admiration for Cena. Fans are eagerly awaiting the showdown between the two at Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 14th^Th.

I would have been so much better.

I would have looked a lot cooler too. pic.twitter.com/dt9h6uqmDR
