On tonight's edition of AEW Dynamite, Cody took on Brodie Lee in a Dog Collar match. WWE Hall of Famer Greg "The Hammer" Valentine was the special guest for the contest. Valentine wrestled Roddy Piper in a Dog Collar match, back in the day, in what many deem as one of the most brutal contests in history.

The same story followed here as well, as both Cody and Brodie Lee did everything in their power to put their opponent down. In the end, Cody put the chain around Brodie Lee's face and tightened it, followed by a devastating Cross Rhodes to secure the win. Cody took to Twitter soon after, and had a message for Brodie Lee:
Back in August, Cody took on Brodie Lee with the former's TNT title on the line. Cody had won the belt by defeating Lance Archer, and had successfully defended it against a string of talented wrestlers on a weekly basis. His impressive reign finally came to an end on an episode of AEW Dynamite, where he lost the belt to Lee in what was a squash match.
Cody received a beatdown at the hands of Lee following that match. Tonight, Cody has recaptured the belt again, and it would be interesting to see how things play out now that Orange Cassidy is gunning for Cody's belt.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
