Undisputed WWE Champion “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes spoke with Adrian Hernandez on a number of topics, including how his Extreme Rules 2012 match with pro wrestling veteran The Big Show and how influential the former WWE star has been on his career.

Rhodes said, “It’s fun to pull back the curtain on this one now because I do think this person deserves credit for it and didn’t get any ’cause so many people thought, ‘Oh, maybe that wasn’t supposed to happen’ — the Big Show. Big Show was so influential in my career and doesn’t even realize it because I was going through it when I was going up against him and, man, I’m lucky to have had that experience with him. That was his idea, Michael Hayes was right there to say, ‘Yep, let’s do it,’ and it ended up being a very fun moment.”
