I think there's a strong chance he might. The pop that night will be huge but the fans will turn on him quickly in the build to WrestleMania and that might be the plan in order to make Roman the top face he was always supposed to be. Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I don't really find that a bad idea especially if we get 2003 version Hollywood Heel Rock. If not him then Cody will win the Rumble if he's in it.

It's time to finally pull out the "28 and 29 eliminate each other so 30 wins by default" card.

In Triple H's vision maybe he still holds a grudge for him smashing the throne with a Sledgehammer and Cody enters the Rumble Number 1 and gets eliminated by a debuting Marko Stunt at Number 2.

It's fine as long as they have a strong plan for him. If Roman is tied up in a bunch of other stuff for a few months, Cody needs to stay a hot act during Mania season which can be tough when there's only so much going on. And I do think a Seth feud makes sense but I also want him to please do something else shortly after he returns.

to answer OP’s question, no it wouldn’t hurt his stature in the slightest
the only way it’d be damaging is if he returned in the weeks leading up to the rumble, announced that he was going to win it and beat Roman, making that this sole character motive for the entire build to the rumble
as it is, he’d be a pleasant surprise entrant who could conceivably be eliminated thanks to “ring rust” to set up his mania feud with someone else

No I don't know them but it's a whole different regime now so what Vince had planned for Cody might not be what Triple H does. I like Cody wasn't knocking him just saying.

If Rock does win it then they need to have Rollins at #1 and Rhodes at #2. They last all the way until at least entrant 20 and Rhodes eliminates Rollins. Afterward Rollins comes back in and eliminates Rhodes and they brawl to the back before getting separated.

Given the palpable reactions that Punk and Roman both elicit, I think this place would completely melt if they ever had a program together.
Anyway... Cody's the obvious choice to dethrone Roman, but there's been plenty of obvious choices that went nowhere. There's also the fact that Cody may not be healed enough to come back by the Rumble or even Mania, which means possibly another year of Roman because that title ain't going anywhere unless it's a Wrestlemania.
I, personally, am over Roman and this whole bloodline thing and this long-ass title run. I know long title reigns were the thing 30 or so years ago, but that was before the WWE had 5 hours of TV per week + PPV/Premium Live Event/Whatever. It's exhausted me. I don't care anymore. If you like it, great, but for my tastes... please just get that title off Reigns.

What if Cody goes over Roman but it turns out to be a Dusty finish and Roman keeps the belt?

This is all good and well but Karl Anderson is winning the Royal Rumble anyways.
