AEW News Roundup: WWE legend calls Kenny Omega better than Roman Reigns, former NXT star on why he challenged Sammy Guevara, Brandi blamed for Cody Rhodes getting booed

#3 Jim Cornette blames Brandi Rhodes for causing AEW fans to boo Cody Rhodes

Cody Rhodes was booed heavily on his return to in-ring action at AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam as Malakai Black, the heel in the feud, came out on top to great fanfare.

The American Nightmare was one of the biggest babyfaces when AEW started, but his pompous character of late has been drawing the ire of crowds. Wrestling legend Jim Cornette believes the first-ever TNT champion's wife Brandi accompanying him to the ring is bringing in a lot of heat for Cody Rhodes.

"I don't know if it's not that he can't be a babyface or just that for whatever reason the start and stop, come and go booking whenever he gets a gig that he wants more like a reality show or a game show or whether his almost universally dislikable wife trying to shoehorn herself into things she's not prepared for or wanted in. She was a babyface, then she was a heel, then she had a faction, then she didn't, then she's peeking in the window at everything going on," Jim Cornette said. "All of those things, the fans of AEW like the other vice presidents because they are all in and they're all there but Cody comes and goes if he's not got something else better to do in his mind. I think he could be a good babyface with somebody booking him like one and not giving him a retinue of minions led by his wife that nobody wants to see on television."
