Eric Bischoff Criticizes John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes For ‘Missing The Mark' At WrestleMania 41
WrestleMania 41 was a history-making event. A record that was held on for nearly three decades came to an end. It was when John Cena defeated Cody Rhodes to become the WWE Undisputed World Champion for the 17th time in his career. While fans and the rest of the wrestling world are appreciating John Cena for breaking Ric Flair's record, WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has revealed that he is not happy with the match.
While speaking on the latest episode of the 83 Weeks Podcast, Eric Bischoff shared that he felt that there was a lack of chemistry between John Cena and Cody Rhodes. He feels that when both stars rewatch the match, they should feel like they missed the mark.

'I have to believe when both those guys watch this match back, they're going to go, 'We missed it. We missed the mark because that match just didn't create emotion…the responsibility is equal among the parties. The chemistry wasn't there. I don't think the story was there to begin with. The heel turn was soft. I didn't say it's bad, but it was soft. It wasn't compelling. There was nothing that felt different than a million other turns we've seen before. Yes, for all of you people who say I never criticize WWE, please pay attention. That story missed the mark from the get-go, and we talked about it here. And it just hasn't gotten any better. I believe it had a lack of heat, just lack of a good story,' Eric Bischoff said. [H/T Fightful]
