Coming off an extremely eventual few days in wrestling, Graham "GSM" Matthews and RJ Marceau are back on WrestleRant Radio to break down what everyone's been talking about: Cody and Brandi Rhodes shockingly leaving AEW. What went wrong? Was he losing power and creative control? Could he be on his way back to WWE? If so, what would be his ceiling for success? They analyze it all, including if Cody will compete at WrestleMania 38 and a potential opponent for him.
While on the subject of WrestleMania, the duo also discuss "Stone Cold" Steve Austin reportedly being in talks for a 'Mania match against Kevin Owens, why it makes sense, and if it could lead to more matches from The Texas Rattlesnake.
