In responding to a fan on social media today, Cody Rhodes made it clear he left AEW over a "personal issue" and wanting to go for "the big one" (presumably the WWE Championship). He stated it was not an issue with booking or money. Rhodes also made it clear he did not leave the company earlier this year due to any issues with CM Punk, Kenny Omega or The Young Bucks:
I didn’t leave because of the Bucks/Kenny. I’m forever bonded to those men over what we created and I remain very proud of it, and I didn’t leave because of/or have issues with Punk. We got along. Not money, not booking, just a personal issue and my wanting to go for the big one.

Rhodes returned to WWE at Wrestlemania earlier this year and is currently rehabbing to return from a torn pectoral muscle. The expectation is he will be back by the 2023 Royal Rumble, if not before.
