View this post on Instagram These are mad times. 35 years ago “The Enforcer” Arn Anderson was part of a group that outnumbered and broke my Father’s leg. Today he’s been tasked with managing me on-camera and behind the scenes, and I could not be happier about it. Everything is there to offer from an in-ring perspective. Arn has been competing in the high-stakes money world of pro-wrestling since the eighties and through multiple golden eras. I wrestle with zero fear and the decisions I make within the ring as a competitor and performer are solely mine, but I also never pretend to know it all, so he’s the perfect person to say “NO” when it comes to my management role at AEW. In 2007 when I debuted on television, Arn was there to provide me guidance and positive reinforcement when I walked back through the curtain...but he also would give me an earful when I didn’t deliver or when I settled for less than what I should have. I love that. Firm but fair. Let’s welcome Arn Anderson as The Head Coach for the Nightmare Family in 2020! @allelitewrestling @aewontnt #aew A post shared by Cody Rhodes (@americannightmarecody) on Dec 30, 2019 at 2:12pm PST
