It's worth noting that Cody was having a similar reaction by American New Japan fans for having less than stellar matches. It wasn't really until All Out when he put on a really great performance, and then once AEW started he had a really great first year. He did some really good angles channeling his Dad's spirit a few times, had some insane matches with really risky bumps and a lot of blood. He was really on top of the world about 5 months into the run on TNT and seemed like the best booked babyface in wrestling.

Then things really changed. The product shifted and Moxley joined and quickly became champion. It was great, Mox was awesome. But still Cody was a good part of the show having an interesting story with Brodie Lee that resulted in him putting Brodie over huge to take some time off for a filming project and then when he returned, it seemed that there was a sect of the fanbase that began to turn against him for playing a very gullible style southern baby face. Fast forward a few months and he cut's a really odd promo about racism, very out of place and it goes down hill from there.

All throughout this whole saga is rumors of dissention amongst the EVP's. Cody has taken a lot of time off screen from AEW and seems to be distant from a lot of people except his circle. He's turned his back on the company and the fans that made him. I never knew he had a yellow streak up and down his spine but he does. Cody Rhodes is a coward and his neck tattoo fucking sucks! Once Vince's see's his neck tattoo he's gonna cancel his deal and fire his ass.
