As per some reports Cody Rhodes has been in the forefront of the heated backstage debate regarding the Winged Eagle Title's comeback. Rhodes' wish to revive the traditional title design has been open since his 2022 return to the WWE. Cody even disclosed in September 2024 that he was "actively working on" making it happen.
Winged Eagle Title come into 1988
Since its 1988 debut, the Winged Eagle Title has come to represent the WWE's glory. Legends like Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, and Hulk Hogan held it famously until the Attitude Era took over in 1998, at which point it was retired. Although Rhodes has been one of the most outspoken advocates, Fightful Select also pointed out that other talent has shown interest in bringing back vintage titles.
For Cody Rhodes, the Winged Eagle Title might be the ideal fusion of nostalgia and contemporary supremacy if it makes a triumphant comeback, even for a single evening. This moment could have a long-lasting effect on WWE history, whether it is a temporary tribute or a permanent return. WWE fans won't miss this event.
