• Cody Rhodes Says Stardust Gimmick Made Him Millions Of Dollars, Puts Over His Time In WWE
A fan asked All Elite Wrestling’s Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes whose character was hurt more by WWE – his or his brother, Dustin Rhodes’?
Below is what Cody replied:
Can’t speak for him, but they didn’t destroy anything of mine. They put me in the spotlight and on tv, learned a massive amount in those 10 years. https://t.co/I79wjXXi6C

Cody then went on to claim that the Stardust gimmick made his millions of dollars:
Made me millions of dollars and allowed me to explore a different side of my act. Invaluable experience. Not what I wanted to be forever, but glad I did it when I did.
