5 Former WWE Superstars to watch out for in AEW

#2. Cody Rhodes

And of course, the main man. AEW wouldn't exist if it weren't for Cody, and the legacy he's leaving by now may leave many fans even forgetting he was a part of WWE!

At only 33 years old, Cody has seen it all. Having left WWE three years ago, Rhodes has wrestled around the world before staging the 10,000 capacity ALL IN alongside The Young Bucks, and subsequently starting his own promotion - but that's a far cry from the Cody we know of from WWE.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

While Cody Rhodes was undoubtedly an incredibly versatile performer in WWE, whether it be as the Dashing Cody Rhodes or Stardust, there's even less doubt that the former Intercontinental Champion is now in his prime, unless he can go up the gears once more in AEW!

Rhodes is currently signed to a five-year deal with All Elite Wrestling, where he's not only an on-air talent, but also an Executive Vice President.
