10 Things Cody Rhodes Achieved From The List

10. The Streamers Thing (ROH Supercard Of Honor XII)

Streamers were a regular occurrence in Ring of Honor when they had live audiences, and so 2018's Supercard of Honor XII wasn't actually the first time Cody Rhodes had received the tradition.

It was a marquee situation, however.

Cody was wrestling Kenny Omega in what was only Omega's second singles match in the company throughout the Bullet Club era. For the uninitiated, the bout came during the peak of Being the Elite's success, with that excellence translated into a superlative story throughout the main companies the Elite was part of.

The particular arc between Rhodes and Omega had stemmed from the prior June's New Japan Dominion event, where Cody had teased throwing the towel in during Kenny's IWGP Heavyweight Championship quest against Kazuchika Okada in their classic. Their story was a main talking point not only in Ring of Honor, but in the wrestling industry as a whole; their match was an anticipated clash during a WrestleMania weekend that also featured Ronda Rousey's in-ring debut and Daniel Bryan's return.

That's how big this was.

For Cody - and Omega, for those wondering - to receive the streamers during their respective entrances told you that this was a big-time fight. It was a Wrestle Kingdom-calibre match, both in terms of its story and the match that ensued; streamers had to be thrown.
