Cody Rhodes made a surprise appearance during New York Comic Con, crashing an All Elite Wrestling (AEW) panel that featured Brandi Rhodes, Awesome Kong, Jungle Boy, Nyla Rose, Jon Moxley (formerly WWE’s Dean Ambrose) and current AEW World Champion Chris Jericho. Rhodes approached the panel and ended up trading blows with Jericho.
Their issues stem from AEW’s premiere episode of its show Dynamite, which aired this past Wednesday on TNT. Jericho attacked Rhodes after his victory over Sammy Guevara in AEW’s first-ever televised match.
AEW: Dynamite ended with Jericho surrounded by members of his new stable, including Ortiz & Santana, after their win against The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega in a six-man tag team match. They were joined by the debuting Jake Hager (formerly WWE’s Jack Swagger) in attacking their opponents, including Cody, who had run out to try and help his friends. Rhodes is scheduled to challenge Jericho for the AEW World Championship at the promotion’s upcoming pay-per-view, Full Gear.
Full Gear airs on Saturday, November 9 from Baltimore’s Royal Farms Arena. The show will air on B/R Live as well as traditional pay-per-view. FITE TV will also be offering the show.
