We're back and the biggest news in WWE and wrestling is Cody Rhodes finishing his story to become the Undisputed WWE Champion for the very first time...but how did we get to this point? Richie Mars is joined by his friend Marcus as they structure Cody's Story with the 12 Step "Hero's Journey" story template that is common in such works as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings & Harry Potter in the evolution of a character! Why was Cody Rhodes not viewed as highly as other stars like Ted DiBiase? When did he start to plateau in WWE? Why was New Japan the perfect place to reboot his persona? And what did Stardust Tweet at Richie Mars years and years ago?

It's a HUGE episode to breakdown the character arc of one of the most important wrestlers of this generation! So sit back, relax and relieve the entire story of "The American Nightmare"!
