Cody Rhodes To Get A Big Push, WrestleMania Appearance Expected

Cody Rhodes To Get A Big Push, WWE WrestleMania Appearance Expected – Wade Keller posted an audio update on Cody Rhodes after his AEW exit. On a PWTorchVIP audio show, Keller noted that Vince McMahon his ready to give Rhodes a big push at the start and it’s expected that he will be at WrestleMania.

Keller said, “I’ve been on the phone all morning all afternoon, nonstop with people in AEW, texting people about the news on Cody Rhodes, which you’ve most likely heard about Cody gone from AEW and heading to WWE. Cody and WWE haven’t confirmed it but Cody is going to WWE and he’s going to get a big push. Vince McMahon is going to treat this as a big deal. Everybody I talked to thinks Vince loves the idea of acquiring a co-founder and EVP and, you know, main event wrestler. He just held their secondary singles title not that long ago, and having him show up on WWE TV is something that Vince is very interested in taking advantage of and making money on it. It could even be a situation where Cody is in a major match at WrestleMania.”

“I literally had four plus hours of conversations before recording this with people and I’m sure there’s more that I’ll get into in coming days and on different podcasts about the situation with Cody. But I fully expect Cody to be on WrestleMania either as a wrestler or making his first appearance. I don’t know if they can hold back on putting him on TV so I could even see him appearing on Raw or Smackdown next week. I’m not aware of there being any kind of non-compete at this point since he’s been a free agent for a while so Cody could appear. I wouldn’t be shocked if there’s even some augmentation to the booking plans for Wrestlemania perhaps related to the Elimination Chamber in order to set the stage for Cody to do something really big at WrestleMania.”

“I think Cody will get a big push, at least at first,” Keller continued. “You know, there’s different opinions on whether Vince is going to resent Cody for creating competition or admire Cody for his entrepreneurial spirit and being classy about it the whole way. You know, Paul Heyman, Eric Bischoff, Jeff Jarrett, they all competed with Vince [and] they all got jobs again. So, you know, we’ll, we’ll see how it goes. Vince saw Cody as a mid-carder. He saw Christian as a mid-carder. Christian went to Impact Wrestling and won a world title…He came back, he got a better push, but it wasn’t at the level of Edge, which is what, you know, Christian always wanted. He wanted to be at the Edge level.”

Keller noted that Cody will no longer be able to do the “blood and guts” in his matches and he will have to do scripted promos and it will be up to him to maintain the push that he will get at the start of this run with WWE. The money that Cody will be paid is a positive in the sense that McMahon would be less likely to push someone down the card when they are making main event level money.

As noted, since Rhodes is not under a non-compete clause with AEW, he is free to appear on WWE TV immediately.
