Cody Rhodes Is Reportedly A Free Agent

AEW TNT Champion Cody Rhodes is reportedly a free agent.

Rhodes' AEW contract reportedly expired at the end of 2021, technically making him a free agent, according to Fightful Select. Rhodes has been working without a contract since then.

Rhodes' status as a free agent has been known by many within AEW for a few weeks now.

There is no word on when Rhodes is expected to sign a new AEW contract, but we will keep you updated.

Last month Rhodes told Sports Illustarated the following regarding his future with AEW, "As of now, my future is with AEW. AEW would be very strange without the core members of the revolution. We (the EVP's) all still talk. We all have this admiration for each other. I can't see myself anywhere else, and I'm very optimistic about what the future holds."

Cody Rhodes, who also works as an Executive Vice President for AEW, became a three-time TNT Champion by defeating Sammy Guevara for the title back on the Holiday Bash edition of AEW Rampage on December 25. He was scheduled to defend against Guevara in a rematch at Battle of The Belts on January 8, but was pulled from the show due to a medical issue. Guevara defeated Dustin Rhodes to become the Interim AEW TNT Champion at Battle of The Belts instead.

Rhodes is scheduled to make his return on this week's AEW Dynamite from Washington, DC, but there's no word on when the title match with Guevara will take place.
