Cody Rhodes Goes Sneaker Shopping With Complex
Cody Rhodes has been on Sneaker Shopping before, and the show keeps score. A graphic early in the episode reminds viewers that he spent nearly $10,000 on his 2024 visit. This time, browsing the Rif booth at ComplexCon in Los Angeles with host Joe La Puma, he leaves with three pairs for $1,300.
The last pair is the twist. The episode's description bills a conversation about Rhodes banning Travis Scott's sneakers from his house, yet the receipt includes a Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low in Medium Olive, next to Dodgers-blue Kobes and a Gundam SB Dunk. Scott is also the man Rhodes hit with a Cross Rhodes at WrestleMania 41, and Rhodes has a kind word for him anyway: "Travis is the one who got the watch, put in his pocket, and made sure it got back to me."
The episode is presented by the Street Fighter film, which opens in theaters on October 16, and Rhodes, who plays Guile, brings stories from the Sydney set. His castmate 50 Cent rented out Luna Park for the cast and crew, and Rhodes would like a pair of the rapper's G-Unit sneakers.
There is plenty of smaller wrestling-world gossip too. His wife Brandi has yet to wear the Louis Vuitton Air Force 1s he bought her last time ("I don't think I've seen her wear it once"). Tyrese Haliburton sent him Pumas with a condition: wear them only when winning. On the show's WWE spending board, Paul Heyman sits at the bottom, and Rhodes crowns Liv Morgan "the undisputed champion." Offered a choice between sneakers and a custom suit, he picks the suit.
The comments came in about six times faster than on a usual Complex first day. Viewers are trading 50 Cent dad jokes and asking for a Cody Rhodes Nike collaboration. One remembers his matching Madison Square Garden outfit with CM Punk and wants the shoes to match next.
