Transitioning from the ring to the screen, Cody Runnels (better known as Cody Rhodes) did a solid job in the episode. He brought the required physicality, which isn't a surprise, but also some decent delivery and a sense of his character becoming increasingly unhinged.

Indeed, he's the sort of character - and has a drug, or had anyway - that you could see recurring on the show. And he's not dead, so there's always the possibility of a return.

Arrow have been down this route before with Vertigo of course, but could Sampson and perhaps Stardust serve a similar role in the future?
