Cody Rhodes will be wrestling into Madison Square Garden, a venue that is considered by many to be the most famous arena in the world, for the first time since 2015.
Rhodes departed from WWE in 2016, where he reinvented himself and helped launch AEW before returning to WWE in 2022 at WrestleMania 38. His second run was briefly derailed by an injury that required him to get surgery, but following his big return at the Royal Rumble, he is back in the mix on top of the card.
Rhodes announced today that he will be wrestling at the WWE house show at MSG in New York City on March 12. Before this, he had not been advertised for the show.
According to CageMatch.net, Rhodes last wrestled at the venue in December 2015 at a post-Christmas live event, where he lost to Titus O’Neil as Stardust.
Happy to chat with @Rosenbergradio this morning & share that I’ll be appearing at @TheGarden for the first time in 7 years! @WWE 🎤 🍎
