Quoted By:
Cody's inherent ability, AMERICAN DREAM grants him a power boost based on how many Americans are cheering him at any given time, but if more Americans are booing him than cheering him at any given time, his ability shifts into AMERICAN NIGHTMARE, which reduces his battle power proportionately to the amount of people booing him. Cody tried to fight off the effects of AMERICAN NIGHTMARE as long as he could by doing increasingly dangerous stunts like going through flaming tables. But the more he tried, the more the crowds rejected him. If he had turned heel and embraced it, would AMERICAN NIGHTMARE have killed him? Or would he have transformed into something else entirely? We'll never know.
