Travis Scott Has WWE Backstage Heat Over Cody Rhodes Attack

Travis Scott got physical in the closing angle of the WWE Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event when John Cena turned heel, aligned with The Rock, and attacked Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes

The Rock jumped in with some belt shots, and Scott even got physical. You can see Scott’s slap here:

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted earlier this week that he heard that Rhodes suffered a busted eardrum. However, on the latest 83 Weeks Q&A, co-host Conrad Thompson noted that when he texted Rhodes about it, Rhodes downplayed the busted eardrum but was sporting some damage from the segment.

In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that “blow was apparently the one that legit broke Rhodes’ eardrum and left him with a black eye. As you can imagine, that got all kinds of heat backstage, with people noting that Scott shouldn’t have been out there nor put in that position in the first place.”

The one story they heard was that Scott was told to make it look good, but it was too good.
