Prolly will use the rumble speculation to get TK to offer a larger down side.

I did just read something bout how they’re bout to use the forbidden door for a male Rumble participant :ohhh:

They have a current Impact champion (Mickie James) already. And WWE actually acknowledged her as Impact champ too

This mufukka showing up in the Rumble too :heh:

"Entrant #27 is on the way. Did you know that number has produced more Royal Rumble winners than any other number?"

"It's true. You wanna win the Rumble, you gotta....you gotta pray that you get to enter at #27."

*buzzer goes off*

*"Smoke and Mirrors" starts playing in the stadium*

"OH MY! NO WAY! COULD IT BE?! IT IS! YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME! CODY RHODES IS HERE!"

"Former AEW superstar, son of the late, great Dusty Rhodes. Former Intercontinental Champion, former tag team champion!"

"For the first time since 2016, Cody Rhodes is competing in a WWE ring! What a moment!"

"This is what the Royal Rumble's all about, Michael! You never know who's gonna show up!"

"Guys, I'm calling it. Cody's gonna win the Rumble, he's my pick!"

:mjgrin:

I'd be fine with him leaving AEW but dude is such an attention seeking carny that he's probably doing this for a storyline on his reality show. I can see him in the Rumble to try to get a big deal with either company but I think he stays in AEW :francis:

It is probably just a case of Cody wanting to have a differently structured contract than just extending the original deal he made so he and Khan are still in the negotiating phase of things.
I doubt Cody would leave considering there is no other place on the planet that would give him the creative control he currently has as well as employ his wife in roles she isn't qualified to be in.

Well you'd have to think not having a contract makes it easier overall to come and go

On the other hand it makes no sense to push him or even worse, put a belt on him, if he can't commit to the business enough to sign a piece of paper. Which they did anyway so idk

I can't see him or anyone else affiliated with AEW just popping up in the Rumble. Impact is one thing, they're not featuring him just for him to run back to TBS 3 days later

As long as stays far away from Impact idgaf what he does :pachaha:

Cody's been doing multiple reality shows with Warner, he's currently TNT champion, and they're building something with this face/heel storyline he has. He's not going anywhere.

They're either working out details for a long term contract or his contract running out is part of a storyline.

A nothing story. Like anyone else would hire him and if he did leave Brandi would be toast.

low key this feels like Sapp hyping up a non-story to drive subscribers.

kinda sad because dude already gets a good number of scoops that are legit, doesn't really need to be doing this. just wait for something that's actually real big news to report.

He does this shyt all the time and then has a meltdown on twitter about people not giving him enough respect.

He's another wrestling "journalist" weirdo.
