Dusty would be very disappointed.

Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to determine that Cody Rhodes comes from wrestling royalty, with his father being one of the true pioneers of the sport. Similar to the situation with Del Rio, I'm not exactly sure what the specifics were, leading up to his departure. BUT, this is one departure that should have never, ever happened.

While I don't know the details, as I previously stated, I feel comfortable in saying that one contributing force to Cody leaving, was the Stardust gimmick. True, he had fun with it for a while and yes, he made it work. However, the company just wore it out. I honestly believe it got to a point where Cody wanted to get things back to normal, but for whatever reason, Vince and his minions decided to beat the dead horse until Cody had enough.
