On the Elimination Chamber during John Cena’s beatdown on Cody Rhodes after turning heel and “selling his soul” to The Rock, American rapper Travis Scott also participated within the ambush, who had already been aligned with “The Final Boss.” Nonetheless, while Cena was pressing Rhodes down on the ring mat, Scott delivered a right hand to “The American Nightmare,” which might cause him to suffer a damaged eardrum and a black eye. Since then, many wrestling fans and media alike have questioned why Scott was involved within the groundbreaking angle, and in accordance with WWE Hall Of Famer Teddy Long, the rapper should’ve been higher prepared before getting physical.
“Cody, and I am unable to say he didn’t do it, but I’m sure he did, he knows, he’s old style. You get with Travis and also you show Travis the way to deliver that slap since you’re with a man that does not know the way to throw a working punch, doesn’t know the way to work in any respect. If any person’s going to hit me in my face like that onerous, I will get with them and allow them to know that is how it really works and practice that with them.” Long said on “Sportskeeda WrestleBinge.”
Long continued to clarify that former WWE CEO Vince McMahon would normally hold rehearsal meetings for certain angles that needed to be practiced, and Rhodes coming out of the Elimination Chamber injured, indicates to him that no one showed Scott the way to deliver the slap.
