Cody Rhodes Opens Up About Torn Pec Injury, Eager For WWE Return

Cody Rhodes is champing at the bit to go back to WWE … informing TMZ Sports the torn pec muscle he suffered has him more determined than ever to step foot back inside the ring.

And, when we spoke with the WWE Superstar at LAX previously today, he informed us he’s getting closer to making his extremely prepared for return.

“They know I’m stupid, and I’d try to test it,” Rhodes informed us, including, “I got in my mind where I want to be, and I think a lot of fans have in their mind where I’d like to be, and that’s hopefully where it’s at.”

Despite the severe injury, Rhodes return to the company has actually been amazing … as they have actually welcomed him with open arms.

“They’ve treated me like the house that built me,” Rhodes stated. “And honestly, it was amazing. “We were back, and whatever was rolling so quick. And then I tore my pec.”

“It was like the best three months of my life,” he continued. “Hopefully, get back to that soon.”

Rhodes tore his pectoral muscle while weightlifting prior to his match versus Seth Rollins at “Hell in a Cell,” and joked he was informed he had the strength of an 11-year-old.

Rhodes isn’t hurrying his return, in spite of severely wishing to battle once again … however when he returns, he’s intent on catching the magic he had with the fans pre-injury.
