WWE announced on RAW last week that Cody Rhodes will be in the 2023 Royal Rumble match. He is also a favorite to win the big match, but he still needs to recover from his injury.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that despite the fact that Cody Rhodes’ Royal Rumble return was announced, Rhodes was not cleared for competition when WWE broke the news about his return.
Rhodes has been training in Orlando to get ready. We were told he was not cleared as of when his name was announced, but the fact it was announced tells me it’s just a formality.

Cody Rhodes suffered a torn pec muscle, but that didn’t stop him from taking part in a brutal Hell in a Cell match against Seth Rollins. After Rhodes won that match, he was off onto his rehab journey, and he wouldn’t return for months.
