AEW’s ’˜Le Champion’ Chris Jericho had Cody Rhodes as his special guest on this week’s episode of the Talk Is Jericho podcast. Jericho would discuss a number of topics with Rhodes, including the AEW roster and how it has been built over the past year.
“Everyone here wants us to succeed” Cody Rhodes would begin on the podcast. “It’s AEW’s first year and everybody wants to succeed. There are egos, and there are people who are all vying for the top spot. However, everyone is very realistic about when they’re ‘there,’ and when they’re not.”

“That’s something I didn’t experience at any other time in wrestling” Cody would continue. “It’s very team [orientated]. Like we’ve got a great team; which is why Brodie will be so, I mean amongst many reasons, but one of the reasons he’ll be so missed? He was great for this team.”
Cody Rhodes would finish by naming Eddie Kingston as another talent like Brodie Lee who brings a positive vibe to the locker room. “Not unlike Eddie Kingston, he is great for this team. Just to have that foil of a personality? An older man who’s travelled all around, who also knows how finite this is? This [AEW] could end.”
Jericho himself would also comment on the importance of the younger audience during the podcast. ‘To keep an eye on that demo is so important’ Jericho would continue. ‘That’s why I even wanted to work with Orange Cassidy. It’s 100 years ago it seems, because I used to see the kids in the crowd dressed up as Orange Cassidy.”
