Cody Rhodes returned to the Royal Rumble as the number 30 entrant and he went on to win the men’s Royal Rumble match. By doing so, he has now guaranteed himself a spot in the main event of WrestleMania.

As for Ricky Starks, he is currently being pushed as a breakout star in AEW after he has been on a winning streak as of late. He even recently beat Chris Jericho on Dynamite a few weeks ago.

It looks like Starks has a big role to play in AEW and it doesn’t seem plausible that he could leave all that and move to WWE. However, it wouldn’t be surprising if WWE offer him a contract given his skills. Stay tuned to Ringside News as we bring you similar stories.
