"The American Nightmare" will be re-imagined as the "Barbarian King."
He told Fox News Digital in a recent interview he’s played Clash of Clans since its early days. The video game requires players to build their own village by using resources obtained from attacking others or joining their own clan to participate in "Clan Wars."
"Talking about the culmination of years, for those who don’t know, I’ve been playing Clash since the OG days and there’s a whole group of WWE (stars) – the Nicky Clan – that still runs today," Rhodes said. "We’re literally on a prep day for a war. Now, we do all the seasons. I’ve gotten every skin you could think of. I’m constantly pressing the little coat hanger to see what you can change and for this to be a collab with WWE – mind blowing.
"There are things you want and wish for and goals you might have in this job and there’s those really pleasant surprises that come across. This has been one of those really pleasant surprises. I didn’t anticipate we’d be able to do this cross-promotion, WWE and Clash, and gosh, it’s blowing me away."
