Cody Rhodes is one of the most talked about and loved wrestlers in the WWE right now and rightly so. He has captured the hearts of fans throughout the world with his superstar in-ring skills. Not only that, he is great on the mic too as he is a pro at cutting intense promos week after week.
While he has a lot of fans in the stands, it looks like some of them are from his previous company, AEW. During the Royal Rumble, which Cody eventually won, spotted in the backstage area was none other than AEW superstar, Ricky Starks. That did cause some unusual chatter in the wrestling community but recently, Rhodes spoke about the incident on the Out of Character podcast and said, “I’ll take full blame. My fault. It was a friend coming to see me in a very big, truly emotional moment. To lose your confidence as an athlete, a fighter, and an entertainer; to get back up off the mat, and not just get back up, you have to be at the level you were.
“I liked having people in my circle around me. I think also, that will be the only time anyone from another company is ever present because it creates a conversation that is not accurate. It creates an outlook, this is my friend. He wanted to be there to support me. He should have stayed his butt on the bus, but he did not, and because of that, no friends at work anymore,” said Rhodes.

According to sources, the match between the two superstars will most likely be the closing match of WrestleMania night two. The American Nightmare won the Royal Rumble match and went on to confront Roman Reigns. Nevertheless, because of Sami Zayn’s rapid ascension as the top babyface and his angle with Reigns, many speculated that he may be added to the bout. There are presently no such plans.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter’s Dave Meltzer has reported that Rhodes vs. Reigns will be the big event of WrestleMania Hollywood’s second night. He stated that there are no firm arrangements for which match would be the night one conclusion. The top challenger for the SmackDown Women’s Title is currently Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley.
Meltzer said, ”Reigns vs. Rhodes is expected to headline the second night. There is no decision on the main event past an internal feeling that Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley right now is the favorite. If there is Usos vs. Zayn & Kevin Owens, one would think that would be the other favorite.”
