Cody Rhodes has been competing inside the squared circle for a long time and it could be argued that 2024 was the best year of his career. The American Nightmare finished the story when he won the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania, but even Cody knows that he will have to start winding down his in-ring career at some point.
Recently Cody Rhodes talked about his future during an appearance on 2 Bears, 1 Cave and he indicated that he won’t be wrestling full-time past the age of 45.
“Well, 39 now, I’d say, my contract is running until…I don’t want to wrestle full-time definitely past 45. Drop in, for sure, keep myself in shape. I could see [being involved in the wrestling world].”
I would love to tell stories like we do in the ring in a different fashion. I’d absolutely love to do it [when asked about making shows and movies].”
But I’ve always been so linked into wrestling and coming back to WWE where winning the championship for WWE is essentially like being the quarterback of the team.”
“So it’s been the most fun and rewarding time I’ve ever had in my career. But I can definitely see…I don’t think I’d be able to do it on this level. Because I feel the best I’ve ever felt.”
“Plus, we have all these new kids. I was working with one the other day, Carmelo Hayes, and to be able to see him hear things and hear an audience and this is why that didn’t work, this is why it did work, I’d love to do it at this level up until probably 45.”
