5 opponents for CM Punk if he goes to AEW

#3 Cody Rhodes

American Nightmare vs The Voice of the Voiceless

When both these men were in WWE, it's hard to remember if they had a real feud. While it's probably true that they had an occasional match against one another, it was never really a proper bout.

Cody Rhodes never really got pushed to where he should be. However, he still kept reinventing himself and trying out different gimmicks. The Stardust character, while ridiculed by most WWE fans and Cody himself, proved that Cody always went out of his way to make anything work, like his father Dusty Rhodes.

Cody in his current avatar as The American Nightmare is one who cuts deadly promos, can move well in the ring and knows how to tell a good story. This version of Cody Rhodes is someone that CM Punk has never faced.

With Punk's natural promo skills and Cody's improvement as a performer, it would certainly add to a potential match in the future.
