| Controversies | ā¢ Using WWE Banned Words: Cody created a controversy after he commented on the banned words in WWE stating that āIf they fine me $1,000 every time I say belts, Iām fine with it. Belts. It can be a title belt, sure, itās a championship. But it also physically goes around your waist. Itās a belt. So, those are great belts [in the new Mattel figures].ā It was a response to the panelist Steve Ozer who spoke of the ātitle beltsā before he realized and replaced it with āchampionship titles.ā The banned words in the tournament are āWrestling, Wrestlers, Belt, Blood, Choke, Diva, Strap, Mofos, Head Shot, Trauma, DQ, The Anti-Diva, Spinal Injuries, Victim, Violence/Violent, WWF, Wifebeater, Curb Stomp, Strangle, Kill, Murder, Kayfabe, House Show, Push, Being Over, Babyface, Heel, Job/Jobber, Card, and Non-Title.ā check sources Give Me Sports ā¢ LGBTQ Themed T-Shirt Controversy: To commemorate the Pride Month, Cody showed his support to LGBTQ group by launching a T-Shirt with his Logo on it. This was done for a charity that helps to protect Transgender rights. This act of portraying his own logo got a lot of criticism as fans thought that Nayla Rose or Sonny Kiss would have been a better representative of the community. However, later on Rose defended Cody by saying that he only had good intentions. check sources Yahoo Sports  "People tend to be a little too woke a lot of times and overlook a lot of things,ā Rose said. āCodyās an ally and he wants to go out there and do good. How can you hate on someone who wants to do good because it isnāt how you want it to be done? Thatās absolutely silly. Cody actually asked me about the charity, so I did my research and due diligence and said absolutely and we agreed it was a great place for the proceeds to go to. To have someone like Cody, Dustin Rhodes, Brandi Rhodes back me and see me as a person first, it means the world to me.ā ā¢ AEW āAmerican Dreamā Promo on Anthony Ogogo: Rhodes revealed a promo on AEW Dynamite during his Double or Nothing match with Anthony Ogogo, in which he was seen giving a patriotic speech to his audience. Many of his fans criticised him and Cody has to come clean to the media and explain his intentions.
