Cody Rhodes shocked the world of professional wrestling by returning to WWE after founding the company's direct competitor, All Elite Wrestling, precisely because he hadn't found a place in Stamford. The wrestler then announced that he had left AEW with reporters who began speculating on his possible return to WWE but leaving many doubts in the minds of fans who did not think it possible after all that had happened.
Instead, at Wrestlemania 38, the American Nightmare returned to face Seth Rollins and his return was nominated as a finalist for Best WWE Moment Of The Year at the ESPY Awards. The other nominees were: The Undertaker's induction into the WWE Hall of Fame, Big E cashing his Money In The Bank briefcase on Bobby Lashley to win the WWE Championship, and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin hitting Vince McMahon, Austin Theory and Pat McAfee with the Stunners at WrestleMania 38.
At the annual ESPY Awards ceremony, Dusty Rhodes' son was named the winner of the Best WWE Moment award by overcoming all those equally important moments.

"I was told the last time I was there for my check-up, after PT [physical therapy], they are not going to give me a timeline just yet for when I'm going to be back because they are afraid that if they give me that timeline, I'm going to try and jump it by a month or two.
The surgery was really...I almost hemorrhaged in the surgery because there was so much blood. People have seen the picture of it in the match. It was pretty gnarly."
