Tony Khan Calls Cody Rhodes Leaving AEW “A Major Challenge”, Notes Jon Moxley’s Return Helped AEW Through It
Cody Rhodes has had an explosive year, and Tony Khan calls him leaving the company a major challenge.
Earlier this year, Cody Rhodes left AEW in favor of a return to WWE, returning to the promotion at WrestleMania 38 to face Seth Rollins.
While speaking to Fightful’s Grapsody podcast, Tony shared some thoughts on Cody leaving the promotion.
Tony Khan says that Cody Rhodes leaving was a major challenge, and that any time you lose a talent of his caliber, it not only impacts the roster and in-ring, it impacts several different departments. Jon Moxley coming back was a big help to them.
Fightful Select notes on Tony Khan
Rhodes would leave AEW on good terms with the promotion, with the AEW roster having nothing but good things to say about Cody Rhodes since he left the company. Right now, Cody is still out of action with a torn pectoral muscle he suffered earlier this year. You can watch the full interview at noon EST at the link above.
