Cody Rhodes hasn’t been seen on AEW since teasing his retirement after losing to Malakai Black. Since then, Malakai Black has targeted the Nightmare Factory. What’s meant to be Cody Rhodes’ kind of faction but also the name of his training centre.
Malakai Black is already booked to go against Dustin Rhodes, seemingly one of the last members of the current nightmare Factory signed with AEW. Making it feel like Cody Rhodes was returning to AEW soon. Bodyslam.net has now reported that this is true, and Cody Rhodes is scheduled to return this month to AEW, most likely having his second match with Malakai Black.
Where has Cody Rhodes been?
Some of you AEW watchers may remember the last time Cody Rhodes disappeared after being bruised by Brodie Lee and losing the TNT championship. The way Cody Rhodes has been written off TV is very similar to how he was at the time and seems like for the same reason.
Cody Rhodes has become one of the hosts of another TNT show, the Big Show. In this time, Cody Rhodes has been recording the second season of this show, confirmed through a recent Twitter post. It seems like the show has now been recorded, and the booking has started for Cody Rhodes.
Big plans for Cody Rhodes
There are also some reports saying that there are big plans for Cody Rhodes returns, but there is no information on what will be. It seems like the fact that Malakai Black has been taking down the Nightmare Factory, and some of them have been turning heel.
The return looks like it will evolve Malakai Black, most likely in a rematch. It seems like “Big Plans” could mean something different and hopefully more surprising, as if he does return and beats Malakai Black. It’s near a copy and pastes segment from when he recorded season one, except for the TNT championship not being involved.
