Fans have mentioned that Cody Rhodes may not be able to return to AEW following a certain star's recent gimmick. The gimmick in question is that of former WWE star Christian Cage.
Christian Cage has had a habit of confronting stars who coincidentally had fathers who were not with them anymore. This started with Jack Perry, whose father was the late Luke Perry, a well-known actor. He also recently did this with Nick Wayne. Cage confronted these stars and made it known to them that because their real-life fathers had passed, he could be their father figure.
One fan jokingly brought up how Christian Cage could be a reason why Cody Rhodes never returns to AEW. Fans have brought up how The American Nightmare fits the demographic of Cage's targets, and he might bring up his father, Hall of Famer Dusty Rhodes, and insult him.

Several fans thought that Rhodes would take it personally and even shed real tears.
Others claimed that because it was Dusty Rhodes who would be insulted, many fans would be insulted as well, and they joked how fans would jump the barrier to go to Cage.
