Cody Rhodes has been off TV for over a month now as he last appeared on the August 8th episode of SmackDown when Drew McIntyre put him through the announce table with a Claymore. Since then The American Nightmare has been away filming for the Street Fighter movie in which he is set to take on the role of Guile.
WWE has yet to officially announce the match, but it’s been rumored that Cody Rhodes will be defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre at WrestlePalooza on September 20th.
Stay tuned for updates.
