Peacock has released the trailer for the new documentary about the life and career of Cody Rhodes, which will premiere on Monday, July 31, on both Peacock in the United States and WWE Network in international markets.
It’s titled “WWE American Nightmare: Becoming Cody Rhodes.” There will be behind-the-scenes footage of his WWE return last year at WrestleMania 38. Here is the synopsis for it:
“Cody Rhodes grew up living in the shadow of his father, WWE Hall of Famer “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes. In 2016, Cody risked it all by leaving WWE to make a name for himself, becoming the “American Nightmare.” This intimate and revealing documentary follows Cody’s journey away from the WWE, and his return at WrestleMania 38 last year, as he chases the dream of winning the WWE championship, the one title his father was never able to claim. Through never-before-seen footage & unprecedented access, this Peacock Original illustrates the transformation of a man who is blazing a new trail in sports entertainment.”
In the trailer, Kevin Owens revealed that Vince McMahon flew all the way to Rhodes’ house to get him back last year, and “Not many people can say they did that.”
Brock Lesnar is slated to respond to Rhodes on tonight’s episode of WWE Raw to set up their SummerSlam match. You can check out the trailer here.
