Dustin Rhodes Wanted To Prove WWE Wrong On Match With Cody In AEW

During a recent interview appearance on the Wrestling Perspective podcast, AEW veteran Dustin Rhodes reflected on his match with younger brother Cody Rhodes at AEW Double or Nothing 2019.

Dustin was on a mission to prove WWE wrong after Vince McMahon had denied them the matchup beforehand for WrestleMania.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

Dustin Rhodes on his match with Cody Rhodes: “The story was there because we wanted a match for so many years and I’d told people about it, I was p****d … we proved them wrong. That night I found my passion again. It’s dad’s death, it’s a lot of contributors, it’s my sobriety, it was all the things that the bad times I had that knocked me down a peg I had to find it again and I have, it’s good.”

On his nerves going into the match: “I had not worked for about six months and he’s young, everybody is so much faster and quicker and I’m older, but Cody’s a lot like me with his style of telling a story and just taking your time and letting things gradually, organically present itself to the people in a story setting.”
