Cody Rhodes.
It appears that Cody Rhodes (known as Stardust) has asked for his WWE release. On his personal twitter account @PrinceCGR, he released a statement saying he was asking for his release after almost 10 years with the company.
Here were the tweets:
(1/2) The past ten years have been quite the trek, but as of earlier today I have asked for my release from @WWE

(2/2) I’ll speak further on the matter shortly. Thank you to all the pro-wrestling/sports entertainment fans worldwide. Thank you

Stardust was in the WWE Intercontinental Championship ladder match at WrestleMania 32. After that he hasn’t really been featured on WWE TV too much. It is unclear what caused him to ask for his release so we will update when he releases more information.
Let us know your initial reaction to the news.
Is all this because his wife didnt make the poll for beautiful women list or something??
Good luck to him. He’s trending on twitter as we speak but most likely its another band-wagon “fake care” type of thing. I dont mean to sound so salty but I’ve never seen any tweets during Raw of people missing him or wishing he would get more TV time. But as soon as he ask for his release, all of a sudden the “im gonna miss him” tweets come out the woodworks. Personally it doesnt bother me that he’s leaving and I wish him well after he leaves, but see ya Stardust, its been real.
This is a difference between not seeing someone often, and not seeing them ever again.
Cody has rocked any gimmick he’s had.
