After going to a time limit draw with Darby Allin, Cody Rhodes ended up in a pool of blood following a vicious chair shot to the head from Shawn Spears during tonight’s AEW Fyter Fest event.
Shawn Spears entered the ring after the match, delivered an unprotected chair shot to the back of Cody’s head.
Rhodes immediately fell, and the back of his head began gushing blood. The commentary tea, stalled while Rhodes was attended to by members of the AEW roster.

Based on how much AEW spoke about the incident, the thought here is they used the chair shot as something to build Shawn Spears as a massive heal. Once more details are known on the backstory of the incident, an update will be provided.
