In an interview on Q101 Lounge with Case Lowe, AEW President
Tony Khan discussed having positive interactions with Cody
Rhodes ever since he left AEW and also addressed Rhodes’
comment in a previous interview where he said he felt
disrespected in AEW.
Khan said he does not agree with Cody’s assessment that he
was disrespected in AEW but he wants to give him the benefit
of the doubt because he has also heard Cody saying good
things about AEW.
“And for somebody that doesn’t work here and that’s involved
in the competitive promotion, he’s usually pretty gracious
with the things he says,” Khan noted. “I’ve seen him since
he’s been gone. And it’s always been very positive and good.
I have only good things to say about him and his
contributions here.”
The real reasons why Cody and Brandi Rhodes left AEW remain
a mystery and both Rhodes and Khan have kept their word on
not speaking about it in interviews.
Rhodes, a founding member of AEW, left the company in
February 2022, joined WWE, and as they say, the rest is
history.
Khan spent an hour with Lowe during the interview,
discussing a variety of other subjects including his MVP Jon
Moxley, Continental Classic tournament, booking, and more.
