On WWE RAW this week, Cody Rhodes stirred controversy with his explicit language directed at The Rock, questioning his heel status. He also didn't tone down his language much, which didn't really fit with WWE's PG guidelines.
Cody Rhodes took the microphone on WWE RAW with profane remarks directed at The Rock, questioning his status as a heel and insulting him with explicit language. Despite WWE's PG guidelines, Cody's use of profanity has sparked discussion about a potential double standard regarding promos. It seems that The Rock isn't the only one who can use a potty mouth on live television nowadays.
Cody Rhodes started his promo out this week by saying that he doesn't think The Rock is a heel. He said, "you're not a heel, you're an asshole." That was a pretty big profanity to drop, but he wasn't finished by a long shot.

Later on, the American Nightmare said that The Rock was a "little bitch," as he made reference to how Dwayne Johnson "cried" to the TKO board after his WrestleMania match against Roman Reigns fell apart due to fan backlash.
Cody said that The Rock will have a case of LDS when WrestleMania 40 comes around. He clarified that this meant "little d*ck syndrome." That also got an "LDS" chant going from the crowd.

Then Cody capped everything off by saying that The Rock is just going to be "Roman's side chick" at Mania. It was quite a promo, and a fitting answer to The Rock's many jabs at the former AEW EVP.

Paul Heyman came out after that, and the two started a back-and-forth promo that was rather uneventful. They set up this week's SmackDown, but Cody didn't let loose on any more four-letter words after the Wise Man came out to slow him down.
I exclusively reported that Nick Khan, Paul Levesque, Dan Ventrelle sent out a memo "the other week" about how talent needs to adhere to PG guidelines on TV and also on social media. The Rock, like most things in his life at this point, is getting a bit of special treatment, and he got to say whatever he wanted to, regardless of guidelines.
There was an idea that a double standard is going around when it comes to promos. Now, it appears that Cody Rhodes is allowed to loosen up with the profanities as well.
It was later said that The Rock can get away with so many profanities because WWE sends the scripts into FOX for approval beforehand. Therefore, they know what dirty words are coming, and the bleep button is ready.
