Cody Rhodes Rhodes "had been floundering as the Stardust character over the past year or so, mostly landing on "Superstars" or "Main Event"". Jason Powell of "Pro Wrestling Dot Net" commented that Rhodes choosing to leave was "surprising in the sense that Cody and his family have worked for WWE for so long". Meanwhile, Dave Scherer of "Pro Wrestling Insider" wrote: "I can't say I blame him a bit. Not even a little bit. WWE never gave him a real chance, and that's just sad to me". After he left WWE, Rhodes continued working under his real name on the independent circuit,
