--- This weekend, Cody Rhodes asked for his release from WWE, and the company granted that request on Sunday afternoon. But Cody promised to deliver an explanation as to why he was leaving WWE. Sure enough, Cody delivered.
In his scathing post-release statement, Cody put WWE on blast, ripping into the head writers, who refused to allow him to ditch the dead-end Stardust gimmick to reclaim his on-screen identity as Cody Rhodes. In particular, Cody points out one unnamed writer who was “too busy hitting on developmental divas” to return any of his calls or emails. This writer is believed to be Ryan Ward, the former NXT head writer who’s been bumped up to the main roster, and who’s had extensive contact with the women’s developmental roster. But, for the most part, the grievances all come down to Cody seeing greater worth in himself than WWE did. In one particularly noteworthy passage, Cody makes an analogy of his plight by saying, “The best actors don’t want lesser roles.”
