WWE: Cody Rhodes has been out of action for nearly six months, nursing a shoulder muscle injury, while he looks set for a return soon. Meanwhile, former Universal Champion Seth Rollins is tipped to turn heel again at this time.
Cody Rhodes stunned the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) fans earlier this year when he made his highly-awaited return at WrestleMania 38, as he contested against former WWE and Universal Champion Seth Rollins. He continued his rivalry with Rollins in the following two pay-per-views (PPVs), with the former winning on all occasions before being ruled out for the rest of the year with a shoulder muscle tear. As he underwent surgery for the same, he is nearly done with rehab and looks set to return to in-ring action soon. As per reports, he seems likely to continue his rivalry with Rollins, as the latter brutally attacked him with a sledgehammer before he left for recovery.
Since then, Rollins continued to portray himself as a heel and even won the United States Championship before losing it and eventually turning a babyface at this time. However, suppose a report from Xero News is to be believed, with Rhodes returning soon. In that case, Rollins looks set to turn heel yet again to continue his rivalry with him, while he would also be taking the former's name in the coming days to build up the feud and tease his return.

As for Rhodes, he is being tipped to return during the Royal Rumble PPV next month. While he is continuing with his rehab, which is nearly done, he has been putting in a lot of effort to get ready to return to in-ring action of late. He is rehabbing at the Sports Rehabilitation Center Physical Therapy in Atalanta, where he was recently photographed.
