Cody Rhodes Hoping To Win ESPY For WWE WrestleMania 38 Return
Cody Rhodes is injured and unable to compete for WWE's unified championship, but he still has eyes on another prize. During the lead-up to Hell In A Cell, The American Nightmare injured his pectoral muscle while training. He went ahead and wrestled on the torn pec anyway, putting on a gutsy performance against Seth Rollins.
Following his Hell In A Cell victory, Rhodes needed to undergo surgery. It's unclear at this juncture just how long he'll be on the shelf. During promos, he's said that his timetable is at nine months, but he intends to return before that. In general, wrestlers and athletes who've suffered similar injuries have missed between six and nine months while recovering and rehabbing.

Let’s win an ESPY" [sic] WWE fans can vote for their favorite moment on ESPN's official website.
