WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson talked about Cody Rhodes finishing his story at WrestleMania last weekend. Arn and Cody’s family go back many years.
Arn on what Cody Rhodes has been able to accomplish:
“He bet on himself. When he left the first time from WWE, nobody including me thought it was a great idea because they were offering him a lot of money to stay, but he had a game plan and he knew what he had to do to execute it. He made the decision to move on and what a career he had on his own until he made his way back to WWE. I was one of the guys that I didn’t want him to leave AEW. I certainly encouraged him to stay because he was kind of in control of his own destiny. We had that conversation, but I also had this to come in right behind it. If whatever decision you make is for the good of your family, then it can’t be wrong.”
“If you’re building a roster, if you started from ground zero tomorrow, I’m going to build a company. Who do you want that’s marketable, that’s a tremendous performer, that’s somebody that you can depend on, that’s going to draw you money and going to sell merch and is just got to be a valuable guy to have in the locker room all the way around? That would be Cody.”
