AEW TNT Champion Cody Rhodes finds himself in an interesting spot as he is technically a free agent.
Fightful Select reported today that Rhodes’ expired at the end of 2021, and he’s been working in All Elite Wrestling without a contract ever since. AEW sources stated that some people have known about this over the past several weeks.
It was stated that there were some originally reported contract lengths in AEW that differed from what they actually were. Cody recently spoke with Sports Illustrated about his future with AEW:
“As of now, my future is with AEW,” he says. “AEW would be very strange without the core members of the revolution. We all still talk. We all have this admiration for each other. I can’t see myself anywhere else, and I’m very optimistic about what the future holds.”
The Young Bucks and Tony Schiavone recently signed extensions with the promotion. There are other wrestlers who signed in 2019 just like the names mentioned above that will either depart or get extended when that time comes.
