After losing to Randy Orton on Monday Night RAW, Triple H came out on stage to fire Cody. Although The Game complimented Cody's performance against The Viper, he told Dusty Rhodes' son that he needed winners.
"I gotta admit, Cody you went all in. You fought like your life was on the line. Man, you fought with heart Cody and I gotta tell you from the bottom of my heart, personally, you have no idea how much I respect you. But this is a business. And in business, I need winners. That's why I can't let my personal feelings cloud my judgment. I have to do what's right for everybody back here. Cody, it's with deep regret I have to tell you you're fired," Triple H said. [From 0:35 to 1:34]
With Cody's reinstatement on the line, The American Nightmare's brother Goldust (aka Dustin Rhodes) faced Orton. However, he also lost the match and his job. The brothers later invaded Monday Night RAW and attacked The Shield.
At the 2013 Battleground Premium Live Event, Cody and Goldust defeated The Shield to earn new WWE contracts.
