He then suffered a major injury, which didn’t allow him to wrestle further. Currently, Jason Jordan works as an official and has heavy involvement backstage.
Therefore, Cody Rhodes implied that Jordan might be looking over the functioning of the show while taking care of every aspect. So he might take him away if he stays there longer. It was a humorous momentum and the WWE Universe enjoyed it. He shared a wholesome moment with the crowd. Rhodes is working as a workhorse in WWE.
