The Undisputed WWE Champion , Cody Rhodes , participated in one of two dark matches held after the 10/18 episode of WWE SmackDown . Rhodes defended his Undisputed WWE Championship against Solo Sikoa in a Columbia Street Fight match. After emerging as the winner, Rhodes gave a heartwarming gift to a fan in the crowd. He took the mic and started to cut a promo, but stopped after noticing the sign of a cancer survivor in the crowd.

Immediately, Rhodes left the stage, and presented the fan with his weight belt. Doing this right before wrapping up his promo was an amazing gesture by Rhodes and also an emotional moment for his fans. Here’s what he had to say before leaving the stage:

“There’s a sign over here that says, ”Adrenaline in my soul, I beat cancer to see Cody Rhodes.” I hope you don’t mind. I'm going to come out and give this to you, alright?”

Cody Rhodes has always gone the extra mile for his fans

This is just one of many instances where Rhodes has gone the extra mile to surprise his WWE fans. In turn, the fans have also always been by Rhodes’ side. Right before WrestleMania 40 there was a lot of talk about the Rock replacing Cody Rhodes in the main event. However, following a lot of protests on social media, Rhodes ended up being the main event and the rest is history.

Cody beat Roman to become the Undisputed WWE Champion, and in doing so he also finished his story. Ever since that day, Rhodes and his fans have had a special connection with each other. Rhodes has also recognized fellow WWE superstar, CM Punk, as someone who consistently goes the extra mile for the fans. Rhodes believes that Punk raised the bar for how far wrestlers will go for fans when he brought the NXT crowd pizza a few weeks ago.

With stars like Rhodes and CM Punk around the WWE, fans will always have a special connection with the wrestlers. Hopefully, Cody’s actions also inspire others to go the extra mile for their fans.
