Cody Rhodes has been promoted as the face of WWE ever since he returned to the promotion in 2022 during WrestleMania 38. He worked in the promotion previously for a decade, where he had been mostly treated as a mid card and during his later career, he became a lower mid card when he was playing the character of Stardust.

Ultimately, he was frustrated with his WWE treatment and decided to leave the promotion. He was having a wonderful time outside of WWE, and he was also a founding member of AEW. After spending over 3 years in AEW, he decided to return to WWE in 2022, and he was presented as a surprise opponent of Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 38.

“It really checks the box, because there’s a group of people that is just insistent on like, ‘That guy’s clearly a Republican. He’s had a Trump hat before, he has a neck tatt. He’s from Georgia. Like, he’s clearly–.’ Whereas my family is super-moderate, fairly lifetime liberal family. We’ve been all over the map, sure.

"But those people, there’s no way I’m convincing them. I mean, it’s the US flag on the side of my neck. I mean, it would be a waste of my time to try and like, ‘Hey well, I think a little differently than you’d perhaps perceive, but okay… Yeah, I’m very moderate, so that means I have no voice. Like, no voice.” said the present and two times WWE World Champion.
