There’s been some attitude changes necessary, mine for one to begin with, Cody [Rhodes’] for another, and we’re starting to get a little different feel when we talk and strategize, and we’ll see. It’s gonna be very, very interesting next month," said Arn Anderson (H/T Wrestling Headlines)
Cody Rhodes explains why Arn Anderson fell from the ring at AEW Grand Slam
Arn Anderson became the talk of the town after his infamous Glock promo following Cody's match with Malakai Black at AEW Grand Slam. In addition to this promo, the WCW legend made headlines when he fell from the ring apron during the match.
Cody Rhodes recently explained that AEW's ring structure was new to Arn, which eventually caused the fall for him:
We designed our ring based on the New Japan specs. The aprons are extra-wide so that guys and girls can do stuff on the apron. What happens is the post is farther away. Normally, you can just wrap around the post to get to the other side. Arn's not familiar with that. The ropes are smaller too, so when he went to make that switch, there was nothing to hold on to," said Cody Rhodes.
For the moment, Cody is facing huge heat from fans. It seems like the AEW faithful are finding great joy in booing him. The attitude changes that Arn was mentioning may be a hint of a possible heel turn for Cody Rhodes in the near future.
