Dusty Rhodes is the original creator of the Great American Bash. His son Cody, who is the AEW Executive Vice President was vocal about WWE taking the rights for the PPV.
In a Twitter post, Cody did comment that he holds no grudge.
😂 it’s all good friend. I appreciate the sentiment. Although the event means a lot to my Sister and i, I don’t own the IP and ain’t holding much of a grudge on it.
My focus has to be on our show and talent. Making it fun, making it violent, making it memorable. https://t.co/nWWMcxABJy
