Cody Rhodes On If Brodie Lee Is Spoofing Vince McMahon In AEW

Brodie Lee was revealed to The Exalted One a few weeks ago on AEW Dynamite and since then he’s been getting people talking with his pre-taped vignettes which seemingly reference Vince McMahon.

AEW Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes recently addressed the vignettes on Busted Open Radio and he insisted that Lee isn’t outright spoofing Vince.

“Very unlikely on AEW you’ll ever hear the name of Vince McMahon said, and if you do hear me say it in interviews and in general, I always speak very highly of Vince, because, well, A, he’s Vince McMahon, and B, I was a WWE guy to start, I didn’t come from anywhere else, I came up through their feeder system and they were the house that built me.”

“So when it comes to some of the parallels, I don’t want to be vague or coy with your question, when it comes to some of the parallels between Brodie’s style of leadership, there are a lot of unique parallels, but I don’t think it’s particularly a spoof on Vince McMahon, and maybe it’s because we’ll see how it develops in the next few weeks. I think Brodie just has a very, hmm, power boss, very animal kingdom, kind of social darwinism type approach to the Dark Order, and I think that falls in line with, perhaps, some of Vince’s quirks, but it is not an outright spoof on the legendary Mr. McMahon. Not outright.”
