DDP calls Cody Rhodes a visionary: ‘I love being part of this with him’

Diamond Dallas Page called Cody Rhodes “a visionary” during a recent interview with Justin Barrasso.

DDP has been doing media to promote his inclusion as part of the latest WWE 2K24 DLC package. Cody is the cover athlete for the game. During the interview, he said that his career and Cody’s share many similarities, including them both having been deemed “just another guy” at one point. DDP says that he envisioned himself as more than that, and the same can be said for Cody.

“Cody had the vision,” said Page. “He saw it. People who say, ’I’ll see it when I believe it,’ they don’t see shit. The people who say, ‘I believe it because I see it,’ they’re the visionaries.”

“When I look at 2K24 with Cody Rhodes on the cover, and it’s the hottest video game in a world dominated by video games, I think of 10 years ago when Cody was seeing a vision of himself holding that world title.”

“Cody is a visionary. I love being part of this with him.”

WWE 2K24’s fifth DLC package, which was released today, includes DDP, The Great Muta, Lex Luger, The Iron Sheik, and Curt Hennig.

“Lex Luger finally being recognized again makes me so grateful,” said Page. “The Great Muta, one of the greatest on any continent, and Curt Hennig, who I managed in the AWA. A decade later, we’re wrestling at Starrcade ’97–and Hennig put me over.”

“Now you can see the true People’s Champions tag together,” he continued. “It’s me, Dusty, and Cody Rhodes. He never calls himself that, but he is. None of it is bullshit, he’s the real deal.”
