Former WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes Features In First Images From Next Week's ARROW

They battled in the squared circle at last year's WWE SummerSlam PPV, but now Cody Rhodes is coming to Arrow for a rematch with Stephen Amell as villainous drug dealer Derek Sampson...

As you may recall, Stephen Amell set foot in a WWE ring last year to go to war with Stardust for an enjoyable feud which culminated in the Arrow star emerging victorious. Since then, he and Cody Rhodes have teamed up for a number of charitable endeavours and Comic-Con appearances, so it should come as no surprise that the former WWE Superstar has landed a guest role in season five.

Not much is known about the character he'll play in Arrow, but based on the description and images below, he's definitely going to be a pretty formidable threat. It also appears as if he'll play a big role in Wild Dog's story, and while it's unclear whether this will be a one off appearance or the start of something bigger, it should be a fun episode. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts below.


WRESTLING STAR CODY RHODES BRINGS THE SMACK DOWN TO STAR CITY —Now that Oliver (Stephen Amell) has his new team, they are ready to hit the streets but Oliver doesn’t feel they are ready. Headstrong Wild Dog (guest star Rick Gonzalez) defies the Green Arrow’s orders and sets out on his own after a new drug dealer, Derek Sampson (guest star Cody Rhodes), who is terrorizing Star City. Sampson proves more powerful than Wild Dog and it is up to the Green Arrow to go head to head with Sampson to save his teammate. Gregory Smith directed the episode written by Ben Sokolowski & Emilio Ortega Aldrich.

I wish they would mix up the costume a little bit now that they've had the sleeveless and jacket costumes for Oliver Queen. It doesn't have to be ONE SEASON=ONE COSTUME

@xfan320 - Stephen Amell said that since Vancouver BC gets a little frigid at night, he requested sleeves be added to the costume. LOL.

I'm a big fan of Cody, so this is cool. Hopefully he can act a bit and isn't killed off quickly.

@jaysin420 - I hope the same for him. He had a rough break with the WWE, but he is a goner after this episode.
