Brandi Rhodes has not entered the ring since she took part in AEW Dark: Elevation in January after coming back in December 2021. Following her pregnancy, she departed AEW in February along with her husband, Cody Rhodes. However, Brandi recently shared an update regarding her future in the ring, and it appears like she has no plans to enter into it right now.
Even though Brandi was alongside Cody behind the scenes at WrestleMania 38, she hasn’t formally joined WWE. Brandi recently appeared on the Ten Count Podcast, where she spoke to Steve Fall about her intentions for the future in professional wrestling.
“I’m the one that’s very big in the family on not saying absolutes. As we know, my husband likes to say absolutes and then life happens. I’m not going to say absolutes, but I will say, right now, it’s not in my plan. I kind of did myself a good service in taking a beat. My number one priority when everything happened, and we left AEW, my number one priority was making sure my husband’s dream was realized.
It’s been a dream in the making for him since he was four years old. It’s a good thing that we pressed forward and got to see this through. I was always on the back burner and working on other things. I got Shot of Brandi in the ether, I started doing this podcast. I have other things cooking in the non-wrestling world. In that period of time, I got to spend a lot of time with my daughter, I got to watch her develop in these unexpected ways and find these different things that she is thriving at and liking. I want to be part of that.
When I look at life in wrestling, there is the inevitable travel, and it’s the choice you have to make that you travel with your child or not. If I were to travel with my child, I’m taking her away from some environments she’s used to. I won’t say ‘no,’ it’s not going to happen, but I will say right now, it’s not front of mind for me.”
Brandi, however, stated in July that she was still preparing for a potential return to the ring. She currently hosts 2 Lies and 1 Truth podcast about parenting. We’ll have to see if Brandi Rhodes ever makes a return to the pro wrestling ring, and which company will host that comeback if the day ever comes.
