In a new update, Rhodes revealed that once his in-ring career officially ends, hell be going under the knife againthis time for both shoulders.
Rhodes is targeting a return in March 2026 following his knee surgery. At the time he stepped away, he held gold on two frontsone-half of the ROH Tag Team Champions with Sammy Guevara, and one-third of the ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions alongside Marshall and Ross Von Erich. Both titles were vacated due to his recovery.
Despite the setbacks, Rhodes isnt leaving AEW anytime soon. He signed a six-year contract extension with the company in late 2024, solidifying his long-term future with the promotion both on-screen and behind the scenes.
