When do think Cody will return to AEW? (select up to four)

It's officially the Rhodes to Wrestlemania season in the territory of the Banana Nose Circus. Every now and then I'll watch some old school AEW content for the nostalgia, and Cody was heavily featured in some of them. It leaves me thinking - only a year after losing to one of Jericho's goons...

Someone asks, "when will Cody return to AEW?"

Response:

Never. He's main eventing the greatest PPV in history. The fans love him in WWE.

He ain't gonna give that up to have 20 minute competitive matches with James Cipperley and Wheeler Yuta.

WWE fans are better then AEW fans.

How good must Cody feel right now?

Tony punk cut his pay raise for CM Punk. Punk immolates himself yet again. Cody jumps ship. Cody wins the Royal Rumble and might well end Roman's legendary reign.

Got what he needed from AEW, got out at the right time, and is riding the wave at the top of the world.

They also built the shit out of Gunther too like how they did Kane in the 1998(?) Royal Rumble and had him beat Rey Mysterio's record too and even further built the shit out of the Intercontinental Championship in the process.

Hunter has put in work here.

wwe might still be zzzzz levels, but even at their worst, it is sadly proven enough to be >> aew

aew had lot of potential, but in 2022, they really cui'd their own roster and rep, with bad decisions and bad marketing = tony you cui'd an entire franchise, and the fans aint buying it anymore

I honestly agree with that. It doesn't help that people like Jericho and Moxley exposed the shit out of themselves too and further makes AEW look bush league with their antics combined with Tony Khan as well.

It ain't zzzzz anymore. That Rumble was the best in many years. And yeah AEW really, really fucked up in 2022. Had the potential to emerge as a legitimate mainstream competitor with all the momentum they had from that summer of 2021 and Tony Khan ruined it all. Only now have they begun repairing the damage but it'll be a long time, if ever, before they get lightning in a bottle like that again.

Hope spending a third of your screen time trying to revive Ring of Honor was worth it, you geek.

After last night, I bet MJF is gone in 2024.

WWE may even pay him less but WWE gets him so much more exposure he can use later and it's just the big leagues. It's obvious now.

MJF can stick around wrestling Orange Cassidy or he can go compete at WrestleMania. Tough choice.

I think Hook has a great shot at WWE too. The guy just has everything. Wardlow of course. Darby probably not.
