Brandi Rhodes revealed on Twitter that her husband Cody went into surgery this morning. Brandi expressed how she isn’t a fan of seeing the situation, but knows in the long run it’s the best thing for one of AEW’s EVPs as “The American Nightmare” begins his road to recovery in light of AEW Double Or Nothing.
They just took my love @CodyRhodes back for surgery. Hate being on the waiting end this time. But I know he’s going to feel so much better in time for #DoubleOrNothing ❤️

Rhodes injured his knee during a ROH event in Buffalo, NY back in November of 2018 when he heard a disconcerning pop take place. As a result, Cody suffered two tears in his medial meniscus, but everything else as far as his ACL, MCL and PCL were in good shape.
GOOD news is my doctor is fairly confident that my mcl/pcl/acl are structurally sound.
BAD news is the meniscus is fairly damaged, gonna’ require a scope. No dates will be adjusted at the moment, and I’ll definitely still compete in the final battle main event & at WK. pic.twitter.com/PtyK1wpoiz
