In recent weeks, Alexander has been involved in the storyline between MVP, Omos, and Bobby Lashley.

The WWE Universe's reaction to the idea of a potential Cody Rhodes and Cedric Alexander match
Since returning to WWE, Cody Rhodes has mostly shared the ring with Seth Rollins. The former AEW star won his return match by beating The Visionary at WrestleMania 38.
At WrestleMania Backlash, Rhodes went 2-0 up over Rollins, followed by a historic win inside Hell in a Cell, marking the trilogy between the two arch-rivals.
Responding to Cedric Alexander, the WWE Universe seemed invested in the idea of a potential match between him and The American Nightmare.
