Cody Rhodes WrestleMania Backlash Match Announced

WWE

If you were hoping to see Cody Rhodes start more feuds after his match with Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 38, well you’ll have to just wait a bit longer, as it’s been announced we’re getting exactly the same match at WrestleMania Backlash.

Here is the match announcement via WWE.com:

After making his earth-shattering return to WWE at WrestleMania, Cody Rhodes will once again go head-to-head with “The Visionary” Seth Rollins in a highly anticipated rematch at WrestleMania Backlash.

It was an (American) Dream Match we never knew was coming. At WrestleMania 38, WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon named Rollins’ surprise opponent for The Grandest Stage of Them All to be none other than the returning Rhodes! What followed was a classic showdown between two of the best in the business, with The American Nightmare emerging from the fray with the victory.

The mutual respect between the two Superstars was equal to their mutual skill inside the squared circle, so much so that Rhodes joined “Miz TV” on the April 11 edition of Raw and made it clear he would give The Architect a rematch any time he desired. Later that night, Rollins emerged to throw down the challenge for WrestleMania Backlash, and Rhodes wasted little time accepting.

Don’t miss what is sure to be an instant classic rematch at WrestleMania Backlash, streaming live, Sunday, May 8, at 8 ET/5 PT on Peacock in the United States and WWE Network everything else.

They really do have a way with words.

Cody defeated The Miz in his first match on Raw since May 2016, but it appears that this was just a one-off match, as Seth Rollins interrupted the match to build to the WrestleMania Backlash rematch.
