This isn’t terribly surprising, considering the success he’s had with his post-WWE career so far... a Ring of Honor World Title run, a Tokyo Dome match, being part of a successful YouTube series, in the process of promoting and running his own arena show... but the subject of “would/when will you go back?” always comes up for men and women who’ve left the McMahons employ.
During a Twitter Q&A, Cody Rhodes was asked if there’s “any chance you will ever return to WWE?”
His answer:
Unlikely. They have a huge place in my heart. They raised me.

Now, Dusty’s son would likely be the first to admit you can never say never in this business, which is probably why he didn’t say “never”. But that’s a pretty strong stance to a question with a wide-open time frame like “ever”.
What do you think, Cagesiders? Will the former Dashing One ever grace a WWE ring again in his career?
