Cody Rhodes' Street Fighter‑II Themed Entrance at WWE SummerSlam Promotes Upcoming Film

Professional wrestler Cody Rhodes, who portrays Guile in the upcoming live‑action Street Fighter movie, performed a Street Fighter II‑style entrance at WWE SummerSlam 2026 on August 2 (Japan time). The entrance opened with a title‑screen animation, moved to a character‑selection display, and featured Rhodes in Guile‑inspired attire, including a mask styled with Guile’s hair. His entrance music, Downstait’s “Kingdom,” accompanied the performance, drawing a strong reaction from the crowd.

The segment served as a cross‑promotion for the film, slated for worldwide release on October 16, 2026. The same show also included a Gears of War‑themed entrance by the Bloodline heel unit, highlighting WWE’s broader use of video‑game‑inspired presentations.
