Dustin Rhodes being announced as Cody’s opponent at Double Or Nothing has come as a surprise to many given Back in March he claimed that he was still signed with WWE. 

Dave Meltzer noted on Twitter that he just let his contract expire.

I am still under contract with the @wwe , and everything that is being said online is just talk, and complete bullshit. This is exactly why I hate smart marks!
