#3 Cody Rhodes revealed his AEW Double or Nothing opponent during an emotional promo

Cody Rhodes' feud with his former best friend, QT Marshall, has now turned into a bigger AEW storyline involving several players. During this week's AEW Dynamite, Cody addressed one of those players — ex-Olympian boxer Anthony Ogogo.

The former TNT Champion called out Ogogo for verbally burying the United States. Cody then cut an emotional promo about The American Dream, which pertains to his own past and the United States as a whole.

“You [Ogogo] like to educate. You like to pontificate on what the United States is," Cody said. "In 2021, in the very same city, my wife will give birth to a beautiful white, a beautiful black American princess, shun neither, and I want her to know, I didn’t just lay down under another man’s flag. I got up off my a** and I fought back! And here’s where we’re going to do the fighting: at DOUBLE OR NOTHING."
"It’ll be Anthony Ogogo versus myself," Cody added. "But he will not be wrestling ‘The American Nightmare.’ For one night, it’ll be Anthony Ogogo versus ‘The American Dream’ Cody Rhodes!”

Next week, Anthony Ogogo is set to fight one of Cody Rhodes' allies — Austin Gunn.

Although Ogogo will likely win during the next episode of AEW Dynamite, can Cody overcome the former professional boxer's dominant presence at Double or Nothing?
