Matt Cardona has his sights set on Cody Rhodes.
Cardona answered some questions on Twitter on February 1, and one fan asked him to name which active WWE star he wants to face a match with in the near future. The former WWE Intercontinental Champion pointed to Rhodes and noted that the answer was easy for him.
Rhodes and Cardona are longtime friends, and they worked together for several years during Cardona's run with WWE. Rhodes left the company in 2016, and he later became one of the founding Executive Vice Presidents of All Elite Wrestling. Following Cardona's WWE release in 2020, he reunited with Rhodes during his brief AEW run later that year.
Easy…@CodyRhodes https://t.co/b5UylEPBon

Rhodes had been sidelined with a torn pectoral muscle he suffered at WWE Hell in a Cell 2022. He returned to the ring at WWE Royal Rumble and won the Men's Royal Rumble. WWE subsequently confirmed that Rhodes will challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39.
Cardona continues to compete for IMPACT Wrestling and NWA. He will challenge Tyrus for the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship at NWA Nuff Said on February 11. More information is available here.
In a recent interview, Rhodes stated that he thought his American Nightmare neck tattoo wold be smaller. Click here to see what he had to say.
