Cody Rhodes has been in the news ever since he left AEW. Following his shocking AEW exit, there have been several rumors about Cody once again signing with WWE.

Cody’s decision to leave AEW came as a shock for many. Several individuals from the pro wrestling world had commented on his AEW exit, including former AEW World Champion Chris Jericho.

Jericho said, “The more of those guys we bring in, the less spotlight is necessary to be shown on Cody Rhodes. Maybe that’s one of the reasons why he left. I really don’t know.”

“I honestly think, in a few years, he’ll look back and think, ‘I had it pretty good in AEW. Maybe I should have stuck around.’ But you can’t think that way. Guys come and go all the time. That’s the business,” he added. (H/T: Fightful)

Jericho and Cody are obviously two former WWE superstars who joined AEW. They even faced each other in AEW for the AEW World Championship in which Jericho had the victory.
