New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Following Rhodes' departure from AEW, he made his WWE re-debut at WrestleMania 38 and was revealed as Seth Rollins' surprise opponent.
After suffering a major pectoral injury in 2022, The American Nightmare was forced to sit on the sidelines for quite some time. However, leading up to the Royal Rumble PLE, WWE confirmed his return.
The former Intercontinental Champion entered the Royal Rumble Match at #30 and went toe-to-toe with Gunther. The two men took each other to the limit in almost a mini-wrestling match before Rhodes dumped the Ring General over the top rope for the victory.
Cody Rhodes will challenge for a world championship at the upcoming WrestleMania 39 show. The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, also successfully defended his title against Kevin Owens.
