Cody Rhodes Surprises Fans with The Worm After SmackDown – During the April 11 episode of WWE SmackDown, Cody Rhodes gave a passionate promo about the WWE Championship and its deep personal meaning to him. Speaking from the heart, Rhodes reflected on his journey, emphasizing that he wears a suit not to show off, but to embody his aspirations. He also took a moment to shout out the local independent wrestling scene, name-dropping the DEFY promotion, which earned him a warm reception from the Seattle crowd.
However, the real surprise came after the cameras stopped rolling, when Rhodes continued to entertain the fans in a spontaneous moment of fun. After the show ended, the Undisputed WWE Champion surprised everyone by breaking out The Worm, a signature dance move made famous by Scotty Too Hotty during WWE’s early 2000s era.
Rhodes, known for his charisma and engaging personality, traded in his suit for a jumpsuit and got the crowd on their feet as he pulled off the iconic move, which was one of the most beloved crowd-pleasers of that time.
On Friday, Rhodes shared that he has a tattoo and wears a suit not because he thinks he’s somebody, but because he wants to be somebody. And now, he’s somebody that does The Worm! It was a hilarious and lighthearted way for Rhodes to cap off a night where he had already connected emotionally with the audience. The segment showcased his versatility — balancing intense passion in his promo with playful nostalgia after the cameras stopped rolling, further endearing him to fans as he prepares for his WrestleMania 41 showdown with John Cena.
