Summary

Cody Rhodes shared one of the stranger bits of wrestling locker-room folklore during an appearance on *Your Mom's House*, naming Paul Wight as an all-time leader when the conversation turned to legendary in-ring farts.

Rhodes said bigger wrestlers were usually the worst offenders, then singled out Wight and even mentioned Andre the Giant in the same breath. It was a throwaway story more than a major headline, but it adds to the long-running mythology around some of wrestling's largest personalities.

The comment also came during another busy stretch of media appearances for Rhodes, who recently argued that WWE should not keep leaning on Attitude Era nostalgia.

Quote from Cody Rhodes

"The bigger the guys, the worse (farts). Big Show [Paul Wight], he was a legendary, 'Stink that ring up.' Not even hyperbole, three or four rows could smell [a Big Show fart]. He has a legendary (fart). Andre The Giant also has a legendary fart."

Cody Rhodes ties Paul Wight to another giant wrestling myth

Rhodes putting Paul Wight and Andre the Giant in the same story says a lot about how wrestling history gets passed down, especially when it comes to larger-than-life locker-room tales. For fans, it is less about news value and more about hearing a current top WWE name casually connect a modern star like Wight to one of the sport's most enduring legends.

It also shows how Rhodes continues to come off as one of WWE's most reliable media figures. Even in a goofy conversation, he can turn an offbeat question into something wrestling fans immediately recognize as part of the business' weird oral history.
