Cody Rhodes’ time in AEW has been a topic of debate, with opinions ranging from fan favorite to disliked figure. However, his run in the promotion elevated his status, leading to a top-tier position upon his return to WWE. Arn Anderson, who managed Rhodes in AEW, recently discussed their partnership on the “Foundation Radio” podcast, describing it as an “incredible run” despite some controversial storylines.

Anderson reflected on the impact of Rhodes’ departure from AEW, noting that it took fans some time to accept his absence. He also mentioned being frequently asked about a potential reunion with Rhodes initially, though these inquiries eventually subsided. The WWE Hall of Famer believes their pairing was memorable and well-received by many fans. Anderson also shared that he advises young wrestlers to focus on storytelling in the industry, citing his brief appearance at WWE SummerSlam as an example of how it can reignite memories of past storylines and create long-term narrative threads.
