10 Fascinating WWE Backstage Facts About Cody Rhodes

Is a cousin-in-law even a real thing? If it is, then the Rhodes family tree got even bigger in 2013 when Cody married WWE announcer Eden Stiles (no relation to the Phenomenal One with a different spelling). You know her as Brandi Rhodes of course, but did you know that her cousin was in the ‘E as well?

All Elite Wrestling’s Scorpio Sky sits at the Rhodes table for Thanksgiving dinner with his very own grappling career to boast about. Back when Cody and Brandi got married, he was “Harold”, another person with anger management issues that attended classes with Daniel Bryan and Kane.

He was released for reasons you can read about elsewhere in 2012, then showed up as a firefighter at SummerSlam 2013 for the Ring of Fire match between Bray Wyatt and Kane. After obligatory runs in TNA, Ring of Honor, and New Japan Pro Wrestling, Sky got the chance to be All Elite.

When it comes to gold in AEW, Scorpio is a big player in the Rhodes family; he’s won the TNT and World Tag Team Championships so far in his career. At the age of 40, he’s in his prime with plenty of time to finish the story… whatever his story may be.

When I'm not trying my hardest to visit all 50 U.S. states, I'm listening to music from the 80s, watching TV from the 90s, and reminiscing about growing up in the 00s. I'm currently living in Melbourne, Australia so WWE premium live events are on Sunday afternoons for me; the absolute dream.
