Matt Hardy has said that AEW will be “really weird” following the departure of former Executive Vice President Cody Rhodes.
Rhodes, alongside his wife Brandi, left the company earlier this month and the former TNT Champion is expected to return to WWE very soon.
Speaking with Bleacher Report, Hardy discussed the departure that has rocked the company, saying he wishes Cody the best with what comes next:
“Cody’s obviously one of the forefathers of AEW: him, The Young Bucks, and Kenny Omega. They were kind of the guys that were leading the charge as far as creating AEW and they got with Tony Khan and he made things happen and made AEW a reality. It’s going to be really interesting and I wish Cody the best in whatever he ends up doing, but it’s going to be very weird not having him around in AEW. I’m sure whatever he ends up doing, he’ll kill it and be great at it.”
WWE has reportedly been in talks with Cody about a return though neither side has publicly confirmed this.
