It's fair to say that Cody Rhodes had a lot more to give WWE than the promotion were willing to let him. Frustrated by management's insistence on the Stardust guise, Rhodes decided he wanted to forge his own path in the world of professional wrestling. That journey has brought him to WCPW, where Cody hopes to someday become WCPW Champion.

Simply seeing the 'Grandson Of A Plumber' wrestle on Loaded was a special moment. Better yet, Rhodes was doing so for a crack at Joseph Conners and the WCPW Title. Adding more spice to the mix, if Cody was able to beat Conners then he would defend against Kurt Angle at True Legacy.

Stars like Eric Bischoff, Alberto El Patron and others have converged on Loaded. Still, there's something special surrounding Cody Rhodes at the moment. Fans believe in him like few others in the world of wrestling, and everyone was eager to see if he could snatch the title from Conners.

In the end, that didn't happen. Result aside, seeing Cody Rhodes work a match on an episode of WCPW Loaded is a milestone moment for those in charge.
