JBL Apologizes for Drunken Tweets About Cody Rhodes

JBL apologized for a bunch of drunk tweets last night saying that he’d “kill” Cody Rhodes (in the ring) and telling Cody that “your dad can’t save you, dipshit.”

Was having fun with Cody last night and said I’d kill Cody Rhodes, I obviously didn’t mean that literally. It was a very poor choice of words, I go way back with him and his family and I just was talking smack in a pro wrestling sense. I apologize for that poor choice of words.

It was my birthday and the Cowboys beat the Saints, surely that’s a reason to have one too many! Have a great day everyone!

I go way back with Dusty, tagged with Murdoch/Dusty’s old partner. I didn’t mean disrespect to Dusty. It’s what happens when elation from a Cowboys win, my birthday, talking smack and booze mix. https://t.co/SruBKEsTko
