Cody Rhodes extends WWE stay with new contract signed

NEW DELHI: WWE fans can rejoice as wrestling icon Cody Rhodes has committed to an extended stay with the company, having inked a new contract in October. The news, confirmed by renowned wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer, follows recent reports indicating WWE's eagerness to secure Rhodes' continued presence, marking a priority for the leadership at TKO.
While the length and financial terms of Cody Rhodes' new WWE contract remain shrouded in mystery, Meltzer drew parallels with the recent situation involving Charlotte Flair.Much like Flair, Rhodes' contract renewal was discreetly executed months ago, only coming to light this month.


The revelation of Rhodes' prolonged association with WWE adds a new dimension to his ongoing journey in professional wrestling. After co-founding All Elite Wrestling (AEW) in 2019, Rhodes declared in February 2022 that he and his wife, Brandi, would not be returning to the company. However, in a surprising turn of events, Rhodes re-emerged in WWE, making a triumphant return at April's WrestleMania 39 by defeating Seth Rollins.
Since his comeback, Rhodes has been a focal point in WWE storylines, clinching victory in the 2023 men's Royal Rumble match and headlining WrestleMania 40. Despite his impressive achievements, Rhodes fell short in his quest for the undisputed WWE Universal title against Roman Reigns in Los Angeles. Additionally, a torn pectoral muscle resulted in Rhodes missing substantial time in the ring.

Undeterred by setbacks, Rhodes has declared his intent to participate in the 2024 men's Royal Rumble match, signaling his determination to secure another title opportunity in the near future.
As Cody Rhodes embarks on this new chapter in WWE, fans can anticipate more riveting moments and high-stakes matches. The undisclosed terms of his contract extension add an air of suspense, leaving wrestling enthusiasts eager to witness Rhodes' continued impact on the grand stage.
