On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray critiqued Cody Rhodes' tenure as the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, expressing his disappointment because Rhodes hasn’t had a formidable heel to contend with.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

Bully Ray on Cody Rhodes lacking compelling challengers: "He hasn't had a heel like The Rock. Now I know we're asking a lot, it's difficult to come out of an angle that main-evented WrestleMania with a guy portraying the heel like The Rock was, and then find somebody who could be at the same level as The Rock. So you're dealing with challengers who are heels but nobody who's posing the threat that The Rock did … so underwhelming because I don't think we've had the right mega heel." 

On why his run has been underwhelming: "I love Cody doing the old school way, I love that Cody has the kids in his back pocket, I love that Cody goes above and beyond the call of duty for just about every fan that he meets, I love that Cody answers people on social media, I love that Cody shows up at people's weddings … I love all that, but if I have to be honest and fair about an assessment about something, it's a bit underwhelming … I think it's underwhelming because of the lack of super heels."
