As seen on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite in Atlanta, GA at the State Farm Arena on TNT, Cody Rhodes beat Wardlow in a Steel Cage Match to earn the right to fight MJF at the Revolution PPV event.
Post-match, AEW released this video with Arn Anderson, who serves as a coach for Rhodes on TV, where he sounded off on the match:
“Well, I got to tell you and I didn’t want to say this to him, I’ve been proud of Cody all along. Tonight, I’m really proud of him. He crawled into that ring with a monster, he was in for the fight of his life. Wardlow is untested, he didn’t know anything about him. You lock a man in a cage, he’s going to get violent a lot of times and he’s going to overachieve.”
“Cody Rhodes stepped up to the plate, he didn’t get a single, double, or a home run, he had a grand slam. Nothing but proud of him, can’t believe what an excellent job he did overcoming all that adversity. Man, I just feel good tonight.”
