Cody Rhodes is not concerned with casual fans watching All Elite Wrestling’s product.
In a recent interview with Busted Open Radio, Rhodes explained that the focus is All Elite Wrestling’s core fan base.
“The term casual fan, I think honestly I just threw up a little in the my mouth” Rhodes stated. “The focus is always the base that built AEW,” Rhodes added. “If you’ve seen it, you get it. If you haven’t seen it, it’s something that you have to see and feel”.
