Cody's Triumphant Return to WWE

Armed with newfound resolve and an unyielding ambition, Cody made his triumphant return to WWE, driven by a singular goal: to win the championship that his father never had the chance to claim. He started his first run back on fire, as he won multiple live event matches against Rollins (with a torn pec), and won the 2023 and 2024 Royal Rumble.

Cody Rhodes' Redemption Arc

___________________

After his 2023 Royal Rumble win, he was guaranteed a championship match against Reigns at the main event of WrestleMania 39, with the inevitable interference by the rest of the Bloodline, Cody was unable to achieve his lifelong dream. Fortunately, Rhodes also won the 2024 Royal Rumble (the only Superstar to achieve this besides Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan). 

Cody's Journey Towards WrestleMania

___________________

This time with knowing that he can't end the record-breaking title reign that is held by Roman Reigns head on, Cody had a better plan to end it. He promised that he'll be "taking everything" from Roman Reigns, so he brings out the Rock in an attempt to break the Bloodline from the inside. However, his plan backfires because Cody later realized that The Rock manipulated Cody into thinking that "The Rock vs Roman Reigns" would be best for WrestleMania while also hearing the Rock actually thought it would be best for their family. Additionally, during the WrestleMania 40 Press Conference, Cody confronts Rock and Roman, and with Seth Rollins (who was watching along at the press conference) stepping in to defend his former rival in Cody Rhodes. This ultimately leads to a tag team match with Cody and Seth taking on Rock and Roman for the stipulation of the main event in Night 2 of WrestleMania. If Cody's team loses, it'll be a "Bloodline Rules" match. (which only sounds like what's been going on for the past 3-4 years). 

Cody's Challenges at WrestleMania

But amidst the glitz and glamour of WrestleMania, challenges loom large, with the loss of the main event of Night 1, and Night 2's Main Event "Bloodline Rules" match, threatening to derail Cody's quest for glory. If Cody can pull this off with the odds stacked against his favor, his journey embodies the spirit of perseverance and resilience, a testament to the power of redemption in the face of adversity.

Will he emerge victorious, etching his name in the annals of WrestleMania history, or will the shadows of the past prove too formidable to overcome? The stage is set, the stakes are high, and the world awaits with bated breath as Cody Rhodes prepares to write the next chapter in his storied legacy.
