Cody Rhodes returned to WWE after six years at WrestleMania 38 in Dallas, Texas, and changed wrestling forever. The American Nightmare has since defeated names like Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar and even ended Roman Reigns' 1,316-day championship reign at WrestleMania. WWE subtly confirmed the importance of Cody's return when they ranked it as the greatest WrestleMania return of all time on their YouTube channel.
Rhodes was one of the Executive Vice Presidents of All Elite Wrestling when it first emerged. He had some great matches in the promotion including his match against Dustin Rhodes at Double or Nothing 2019.
Cody Rhodes triumphantly returned to the Stamford-based promotion at WrestleMania 38 when he was revealed as Seth Rollins' mystery opponent. WWE recently released a video on their YouTube channel where they ranked the 25 greatest WrestleMania returns of all time. Cody's return was ranked #1 in the video.
Check out the video below:
This could be WWE's way of showing how much they value Cody's decision to come back to the company. Cody's departure from the company in 2016 was not a happy one. It is great to see WWE acknowledging Cody's return as the greatest and most important WrestleMania return of all time.
