As seen during last night’s episode of AEW Dynamite, Malakai Black defeated Cody Rhodes in a short match. Following the bout, Black attacked Rhodes with a crutch. At the time, Cody was teasing his retirement and was about to leave his boots in the ring.
Following the show going off the air, Cody got back to his feet and removed his other boot and left it in the ring.

I got match End I wanted. Knew something was up with 8 minutes of tv left. What I saw by being there though was that @CodyRhodes socks matched tonight. A nod to @ThisBrodieLee who squashed him for the TNT title? pic.twitter.com/rozUkGVKQ9
