Cody Rhodes has been the talk of the wrestling world ever since it was announced that he has parted ways with AEW, and there’s been a lot of speculation regarding what his next move will be.
Rhodes had been with AEW since the beginning, but former WWE Champion Bryan Danielson made his debut with All Elite Wrestling at the All Out pay-per-view last September. Danielson recently discussed Cody’s departure with Metro, and he explained why he originally got the wrong idea when he heard the news.
“You have to understand my relationship to this story breaking is a little bit different because I’m not on the internet very much. So I woke up, had no idea, I texted Tony Khan something about some idea I had or whatever. Completely oblivious. I’m driving to the airport and my wife [Brie Bella] texts me, and I usually don’t check it but it comes up on the thing and it said, ‘Did you hear about Cody and Brandi?'”
“’Oh no, did something happen? Did they get in a crash? Did something bad happen to their daughter?’ I’m thinking, worst case scenario. I call her and I say, ‘What happened with Cody and Brandi?’ And she said, ‘They’re leaving AEW.’ And it was almost a relief.”
Bryan Danielson will be in action when he faces Jon Moxley at the AEW Revolution pay-per-view on Sunday, March 6th. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
