Tony Khan responds to Triple H's comments on Cody Rhodes documentary

[O-Blaze]

Y’all ever think one day in the distant future, Cody returns to AEW? Surely if he gets the WWE title run.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I still can't believe they took the name FTR when they left WWE bc of that fucking joke lmao

easier to chant, somehow that shit worked

Can’t believe this meme became a name.

Remember when they were still with WWE and they tried to spin it as “Forever The Revival”

honestly, nah. as much as I personally would be cool with it, I think Cody made his decision. He was always a WWE guys at heart.

I'd say 50/50 on it, way too many variables rn for me to guess. Def wouldn't rule it out

Nah. He’s a made man now. A true main eventer. Merch pusher

and you don’t have to worry about idiots complaining about nepotism that you would if he ever became AEW Champion.

Some marriages don’t work. He’s where he should be. Should finish his story there and end it there and end it there eventually

I genuinely think Cody convinced himself of this when no one that was an AEW fan would have given a shit if he won the title. We wanted him to turn heel and win the damn thing, in fact.

 

[O-Blaze]

I honestly give it a 51/49 that he does go back at some point. Though looking at his age, maybe not. Unless he wrestles into his 50s because IF he went back, I think it be 10 years from now which would make him 48, so I guess just shy of his 50s then.

 

[Hoss]

Cody all around did a pretty bad job of reading the room from the point of the Jericho feud onward. Which is a shame, because he was cutting some amazing promos still to that point.

Yeah I made a lot of my Cody ruined Christmas jokes at the end, but if he would’ve turned heel, and went and won the world title, I would’ve been hyped about that

Of course. What, he challenged Jericho the first month or two after Jericho beat Hangman?

And immediately went to this stipulation.

He was trying to prove a point. He was trying to say “I’m not Triple H”

 

[Hoss]

This is one of those early Dynamite promos that made me go "aight now this shit hitting different"

which was really stupid lol. entertaining as it was, short sighted a.f esp if u refuse to turn heel to...*gulp*...finish the story

 

[O-Blaze]

In hindsight, probably would’ve been best to say he can’t challenge for it for like a year, if he wanted to not challenge for it. At least then after a year you could feel out how people would feel about you winning it.
