Cody Rhodes Confirms He Signed New Multi-Year Contract with WWE

As noted before, Cody Rhodes was believed to have signed a new contract with WWE this past October.

Justin Walker held a recent interview with Rhodes. One of the topics discussed included Rhodes confirming that he had signed a new multi-year contract with WWE and his current retirement plans for his wrestling career.

“I can tell you 40 is out of the question just because — and not to give you a scoop because it was widely reported — but I did sign a new contract with WWE and it extends beyond my 40th birthday.

I will say that the plan is still, when it’s time to step out, to step out without it being kind of a painful process, solely because I saw my dad as an old man wrestler. He loved it, he enjoyed it, but as his son, it was hard to see.

My daughter, she’s two going on three shortly. There does have to be a time, just like [Dusty] did with us, where I have to be home all the time and be there with her.

So it’s not 40 anymore, but I don’t know, I’ll update the number. Plus, I hit this prime run late in the game, so I often forget that I’m nearing 40.”

Rhodes has been working for WWE since March of 2022 following a previous stint in the company from May of 2006 to May of 2016.
