Raj Dhesi Suggests Cody Rhodes Should Embrace Heel Persona

Raj Dhesi, also known as former WWE star Jinder Mahal, has expressed his belief that Cody Rhodes should adopt a heel persona in WWE. Dhesi shared his thoughts during an episode of 'Off the Ropes' on WWE Radio, noting that Rhodes has resisted turning heel since his time in AEW.

Dhesi argues that a heel turn would align better with Rhodes' real-life character, describing him as a 'selfish star' necessary for success in wrestling. He reflected on Rhodes' evolution from being part of the wrestling community to becoming a prominent figure in the industry.

Currently, Rhodes is expected to continue his feud with Randy Orton, who made a surprise return at WWE SummerSlam, attacking Rhodes after his match against CM Punk.
