Brandi Rhodes last competed in the squared circle on the January 26th, 2022 episode of AEW Dark, where she defeated KiLynn King. A month later, Brandi and her husband Cody Rhodes decided to leave All Elite Wrestling.
The American Nightmare made his return to WWE at WrestleMania 38 and became one of the top babyfaces in the company.
Last week, the premiere of American Nightmare: Becoming Cody Rhodes took place in Sandy Springs, Georgia. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select interviewed Brandi Rhodes on the red carpet and asked about her training at the WWE Performance Center. Brandi said that she did a trial but then decided to stay at home.
“So yeah, we did a little trial to say, you know, how does this whole thing work with a baby and a bus and traveling, and Becky Lynch can do it. Well, let me just say, Guys, Becky Lynch can do anything. Brandi, however, kind of kind of threw in the towel after that. It was really fun. It was really great, but I could tell pretty quickly, it wasn’t going to work for this family to travel together and be on the road. I’ve got a little girl who’s extremely social and active and like was itching to start doing school and things like that. I was just like, You know what? I was planning on throwing in the towel like a year from now anyway. So what’s one year, really?”

Brandi Rhodes said that she won’t be returning to the squared circle. However, Brandi added that if Cody needs her she will be in his corner.
“No, not in that capacity. I mean, of course, you know, I always joke and play around on social and stuff, saying things like, you know, ‘If Cody ever really needs me, I’ll be there,’ and that’s really just in that capacity. I mean, if Hunter [Triple H] ever needs Steph [Stephanie McMahon], I’m sure she’ll show up, but is she gonna go for the Women’s Title? Probably not.”
