There's no smoke and mirrors here, Cody Rhodes is back in WWE.
Seth Rollins waited, and waited, and waited for a WrestleMania opponent and Vince McMahon's choice did not disappoint this year. Cody Rhodes, complete with his AEW theme song and entrance, came to the ring and proceeded to pick up his first singles victory at WrestleMania in over a decade.
Cody would also pay tribute to his father with a Flip, Flop, and Fly right before one final CrossRhodes put away Seth Rollins and allowed Cody Rhodes to celebrate with the WWE Universe for the first time in six years.
