WrestleMania kicked off on Saturday night, and fans saw Cody Rhodes make his big return to WWE on the Grandest Stage of Them All. Rhodes has been the talk of the wrestling world for weeks now, and he’s finally opening up about how his WWE return came together.
Following his WrestleMania return Cody Rhodes spoke with The Ringer and he confirmed that his contract will keep him with WWE for years to come.
“It may be the most complex document ever drawn out in the history of our game. This is a full multi-year commitment, not a part-time deal. I’m back doing what I used to, every day on the road. They were wonderful enough to get me a bus, so my family could be with me. I got everyone here with me tonight [for WrestleMania Saturday]. They bet on me, so I’m going to bet on WWE. I’m really looking forward to it.”
Cody Rhodes also talked about his AEW departure and he noted that he has nothing against the company he just felt that it was time for him to move on.
“I wrestled everybody I wanted to in AEW. I didn’t want to be a 15-time TNT Champion and hold the belt hostage, I wanted to move on to a different piece of leather. I don’t know why the contract is so complicated. My agent doesn’t want me to disclose much, but yes it’s a pretty long contract.”
Stay tuned for more updates on Cody’s future with WWE as they become available.
