Summary

Cody Rhodes had a pair of great matches, including a dog collar match, with Brodie Lee just before Brodie’s tragic passing. Cody talks about planning those two matches, how NJPW’s Big Van Vader vs Inoki factored into the squash, the back-up plan for the dog collar match, and why it’s so bittersweet for him to have had the last match of Brodie’s career. Cody also speaks to AEW Dynamite’s first year, the pros and cons, what Dynamite can do better in year 2, his hopes for AEW as a company in 2021, and why he loves his job as EVP. Plus, Cody details his experience on the new TBS series, “Go Big Show,” including what it was like to film in a quarantine situation, working with fellow judges Jennifer Nettles, Snoop Dogg, and Rosario Dawson, and why he believes the show deserves a second season.
