The statement confirmed that apart from his contributions in the ring, Cody Rhodes will serve as the executive producer for an A&E biography on his father Dusty Rhodes.

The former AEW star surprised everyone when he made the decision to leave Tony Khan\’s promotion earlier this year.  He had been rumored to make his WWE return since then but fans had their doubts about it actually happening until tonight.

Cody Rhodes has also broken up his silence on his big WrestleMania moment. He explained his decision by saying that he is still the kid that wants to earn a world title in WWE, something his father didn\’t get the chance to do.

Who will advance to the King of the Ring final?
