During the AEW Dynasty post-show media scrum, AEW Women’s World Champion Toni Storm took a shot at Cody Rhodes celebrating his WWE Championship victory in the ring with fellow WWE stars and his boss Triple H at WrestleMania 40:

“For every one of you who saw me all those years ago and thought, ‘She has potential’. You had absolutely no idea it was going to get this good, did you? Tomorrow morning, your headlines should read, ‘Holy f**k was I wrong’.

[Tony Khan], I promise no matter how many matches I win, no matter how many stories I finish, I will never call you into the ring to celebrate with me. Being Timeless means I’m not on your watch. My success is my own, and you’re damn lucky to be a part of it.”

Brian Cage also took a shot at Cody by tweeting the following:

“I don’t care what story you finish. That was the match of the year. Will Ospreay vs. Bryan Danielson.”

On the Cheap Heat podcast, Cody wasn’t happy about AEW wrestlers taking shots at him, as he has never said anything negative about All Elite Wrestling, a promotion he helped start back in 2019.

Here’s what The American Nightmare said:

“The narrative changed a lot about my contributions to AEW. That was very disappointing. There were some people, I’m not going to say their names, they know who they were, who kind of tried to put some propaganda out when I left.

There’s a quote in The Young Bucks’ book about how I was last to the signing. Me, Matt, and Nick are as close as ever. So glad I had them in my career and my life.

If we are being honest, AEW does not happen without me. It doesn’t. With that in mind, I could never root against them. It’s like having a kid and they go off to college and they get a DUI or they get in trouble. I’ll always have that in my heart for them.

I would never root against them in any case, and that’s not always easy because there’s random things said about you in press conferences and that’s a big no no, you should never say me or my wife’s name, Tony (Khan) should’ve told you that.”
