Tony Khan & Cody Rhodes Won’t Reveal Details About His AEW Departure

Cody Rhodes was one of the mainstays of AEW television and an integral part of the company behind the scenes as well. It is not a stretch to say he helped build AEW into what it is right now over the past couple of years. It seems he won’t be revealing much about his AEW exit.

Cody Rhodes also competed in the first-ever match on AEW Dynamite against Sammy Guevara. As reported earlier, Cody Rhodes and his wife Brandi are parting ways with the company after working there for over three yes.

This certainly came out of left field for many fans assumed Rhodes was going to stick with AEW till the end. According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Cody Rhodes and AEW President Tony Khan have agreed that they will keep mum about Rhodes’ departure from AEW.

“I’ve been in contact with Cody, you [Bryan Alvarez] have too, but this is like the basic situation, that we haven’t talked about this, because I think that Tony and Cody pretty much had an agreement that – aside from their statement – that’s the only public stuff that they’re gonna say.”
