Former world champion once mentored by Cody Rhodes set to make a big return and start a feud with him after Night of Champions - Reports

Cody Rhodes is preparing for battle as he will face Brock Lesnar at Night of Champions. However, it has been reported by Xero News that The American Nightmare will then begin a program with another former Universal Champion: Bray Wyatt.

The history between Rhodes and Bray Wyatt adds an intriguing layer to this feud. Back in 2010, when Wyatt was known as Husky Harris in NXT, Rhodes served as his mentor and pro. Now, years later, the once-mentee will be ready to take on his former mentor.

The plan is for the feud between The American Nightmare and Bray Wyatt to culminate at SummerSlam later this year, one of WWE's biggest annual events. This anticipated clash is expected to deliver a spectacle of epic proportions, as the personal history and deep-rooted connection between these two competitors will fuel the intensity of their encounters.

The report also adds that in case Wyatt is unable to make a return after Night of Champions to build the feud, or by the time SummerSlam comes close then Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar 3 will likely take place at The Biggest Party of The Summer.

Will Bray Wyatt choose Cody Rhodes as his next victim?

Bray Wyatt returned to WWE last year but hasn't done much of note. He has been absent since his match against LA Knight at Royal Rumble 2023. A big feud with someone with the star power of Rhodes would certainly help the former WWE Champion get back on track.

As for Cody Rhodes, this feud presents an opportunity to prove his mettle against one of the most intriguing and unpredictable performers in WWE history. Their shared history will add emotional depth to their encounters, elevating the storytelling aspect and engaging the audience on a personal level.
