5 opponents for Andrade in AEW

AEW=Andrade Elite Wrestling
AEW=Andrade Elite Wrestling

#4 AEW EVP Cody Rhodes

Alright, so the AEW fanbase may not be as high on Cody Rhodes as they used to be, but you can't really deny how special this match-up would be. Cody and Andrade both bring a lot of the same tools to the table.

Both men dress in high-class suits and slicked-back hair, and more importantly, both come from legendary wrestling families. Of course, Cody is the son of the late, great Dusty Rhodes, and brother of Dustin Rhodes. Cody just brought out the name of "The American Dream" for AEW Double or Nothing, and is proud to represent his family in that ring.

The man is also known for cutting a promo so heartwarming that it can make even the most hardened souls cry, so that's always something fun to add to a feud.

However, Andrade El Idolo has quite a legacy to represent himself. Being a third generation wrestler, his grandfather, José Andrade, wrestled under the name El Moro. His father, Jose Andrade Salas, was known as Brillante. That's not it, however, as Andrade El Idolo has five uncles who competed inside the ring, as well as his cousin Espanto Jr.

Cody's always been about strengthening his father's legacy and leaving a better one for his family to follow in. If they're willing to tell this story in AEW, Andrade would be one of the few opponents The American Nightmare's had that could understand his perspective.
