Undisputed WWE Champion “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes recently appeared on an episode of Busted Open Radio, where he talked about a number of topics including how he will always keep an eye on AEW because he can’t just abandon a company he help build.
Rhodes said, “I think I’ll always have an eye on it. Because it’s just not something you can abandon in your mind in a sense of, hey, me, Matt [Jackson], Nick [Jackson], Kenny [Omega], Tony [Khan], Brandi [Rhodes], Bernie [Cahill], Chris [Harrington], Dana [Massie] started this thing, especially if you were in those initial meetings. So I’ll always have an eye for it. I could never just pretend it’s not there anymore.”
On how he could never root against AEW because being there was a really great season in his life:
“I had said this before, I wouldn’t root against my former company. And I keep eyes on them. And I have a lot of really great memories, really more than anything.” “Sometimes things are just for a season in your life. That was a season in my life, and it was a really great season.”
