A Look at Cody's New Look: Groomed for Success

by Violet Buttle

I like Cody Rhodes, and I like mustaches. However, I don’t like Cody Rhodes with a mustache. With that being said, I’m into Rhodes’s new t-shirt. Mustache merchandise is popular these days, so making a shirt that capitalizes on that trend is a smart idea by WWE. The design itself is simple and appealing, but it’s the text on the back of the shirt that won me over.

The phrase “Groomed for Success” suits the young Superstar well. Whether it brings to mind his past “Dashing” gimmick, the fact that he is the son of the Legendary Dusty Rhodes, or how hard he’s worked to get where he is in the WWE, it is clear that Rhodes isn’t just a man with a mustache.
