Cody Rhodes has been in the business for a very long time and has tried to remain active throughout the years.

However, he might want to take a break from the profession to spend some quality time for himself. Being a part of the pro-wrestling industry for such a long time can be stressful and exhausting.

Over the years, fans have seen stars like Ronda Rousey and Lita take a long break from the profession before eventually making their in-ring return. While Rousey wanted to spend more time with her family, Lita was stressed to the extent that she wanted to quit wrestling forever.
