Before getting stuck into this particular fact, it's important to remind everyone that Cody Rhodes is part of the Bullet Club's money-making train and is about to promote his own sold out event, All In, this September. Meanwhile, Ted DiBiase Jr isn't involved in wrestling anymore and left WWE to become an executive for CollegeGarageSale.com (who sell college textbooks).

That's quite the turn around from how things were between 2008 to 2010.

Back then, Cody was part of the Legacy faction with Ted and Randy Orton. On E&C's Pod Of Awesomeness, Rhodes admitted that he was always jealous of DiBiase, if only because he believed Ted was being groomed to be the "next Randy Orton", not him.

Things didn't work out that way, but Cody viewed himself as the "ugly duckling" (his words) of the stable and thought for sure he was the third wheel. It took a few years for Rhodes to learn that he'd be doing himself a favour if he stopped comparing himself to other mid-carders in WWE.
