An update has emerged on the status and whereabouts of former WWE Champion Cody Rhodes after WrestleMania 41.

The Mania main event saw Rhodes lose the WWE Championship to John Cena, as he then refused an interview on the post-show.

As things stand, Rhodes is listed as a ‘Featured Superstar’ for tonight’s WWE SmackDown in Fort Worth Texas, but has yet to be announced for the show itself.

In an update on where Rhodes has been after the loss, WrestleVotes Radio reported:

“I got a little scoop for you guys. I know exactly where Cody was earlier this week. And this is a shoot, he was in Hollywood Studios in Florida with his family at the theme parks, traveling, going on rides, and taking it all in as a father to his daughter.

“I happen to have somebody down there that ran up and got a selfie with him. So I know for a fact he was with his family enjoying some well-deserved time off.”

Rhodes has yet to make any public comments since WrestleMania.

We’ll keep you posted if any further updates emerge on his status for tonight’s WWE SmackDown and plans for him going forward.
