AEW President Tony Khan gives his thoughts on Cody Rhodes making his WWE return at WrestleMania 38.
Cody Rhodes officially left All Elite Wrestling in February before returning to WWE to face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 38 this past Saturday.
Speaking with Sports Illustrated, Tony Khan was asked about Cody’s departure and his return to Vince McMahon’s promotion.
Khan revealed:
“I did lose a very prominent free agent. But we’re debuting one tonight in Samoa Joe. In the past 30 days, we’ve also debuted Toni Storm, who was incredible last week in her win against The Bunny, and Jeff Hardy, one of the biggest stars in wrestling. We have a lot of excitement happening here, and that’s our focus.”
The AEW head honcho also promised a pay-per-view quality lineup for this week’s Dynamite, hyping up some of the big matches.
Khan stated:
“My goal is to make tonight like a pay-per-view. It’s a bigger box office than the card we just had on the Ring of Honor Supercard pay-per-view. This is the Young Bucks–FTR, Adam Cole against Christian, and the Hardys in a table match. We’re going to deliver big matches. It’s a commitment to pro wrestling you won’t see anywhere else but AEW.”
