Cody on using WCW as inspiration for AEW and competing against Vince McMahon

AEW

Cody and Nick Jackson of The Young Bucks spoke with media in Las Vegas shortly after the AEW Double or Nothing Ticket Party press conference concluded on Thursday night.

Cody was asked, as an executive, if he plans to take any inspiration from the old WCW product that his father Dusty Rhodes was heavily involved with.

“Listen, it sounds super romantic if you think about, hey, Dusty Rhodes competed with Vince McMahon and he lost. And here is his youngest son who’s gonna go try and cut Vince’s head off. It sounds super ‘Game of Thrones.’ So, in the back of my mind, when it’s just me, I think about it a lot. But again I have these guys (Young Bucks) with me who have different visions. You can’t turn the clock back on old wrestling. WCW is what it was and it was freaking awesome. What AEW is going to be is a whole separate animal.”
