Cody Rhodes is staying put. Rhodes announced in an interview with Flagrant that he recently re-signed with WWE. Cody also reiterated that he intends to finish his career with WWE. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. Check out the interview below or via the Flagrant.
Powell’s POV: This puts an end to my speculation that Cody might consider returning to AEW once his last WWE deal expired. It seemed like a long shot. Then again, it was also a stunner when he left AEW for WWE, and there’s no doubt that Tony Khan could have made Cody a massive financial offer. That said, Cody has thrived since returning to WWE with world championship reigns and WrestleMania main events. It’s hard to imagine that WWE officials wouldn’t have done everything in their power to keep him in the fold. Congratulations to Cody on his new deal, as he’s definitely earned it.
