Reports of Cody Rhodes heading to WWE have been making the rounds for quite a while now, to the point where fans have started to wonder whether he'll actually return.
But a recent report from Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has claimed the next few days will be vital in determining Cody's WrestleMania 38 status. Based on this report, it looks like WWE might have plans for a Cody Rhodes vs. Seth Rollins match after all.
"WWE had its creative set up for a secret debut of Rhodes imminently, as in the next week or so, regarding how he was debuting and a match that has been confirmed would be with Seth Rollins at WrestleMania," Meltzer noted.
Meltzer also revealed that the WWE creative team has been told to stop formulating plans for the Rollins vs. Rhodes match until the latter signs his contract.
It is now up to Cody Rhodes to make a decision
It's been reported that Rhodes' deal with WWE is in a state of purgatory right now, as the former AEW star hasn't officially signed with the company yet. The American Nightmare has several options that he could explore if he doesn't choose to sign for Vince McMahon's company.
Dave Meltzer has reported that the contract negotiations between Rhodes and WWE are still undetermined. On the Wrestling Observer Forum, Meltzer mentioned that Rhodes has a couple of opportunities on the table.
“Negotiations hit a snag. He has multiple offers. He has to make a decision. WWE wants the decision made soon for obvious reasons. The ball is in his court.” H/T EWrestling News
It seems we'll have to wait at least a few days to get confirmation as to whether the plans for Seth Rollins vs. Cody Rhodes become a reality.
