Arn Anderson Discusses Reuniting With Cody Rhodes at WWE SummerSlam

As a fan who has been following wrestling since the days of WCW, I can honestly say that moments like Arn Anderson showing up at WWE SummerSlam to support Cody Rhodes are pure gold. It was heartwarming and emotional to see these two veterans share a moment after their time together in AEW. The fact that Anderson was so integral to Rhodes’ success, making him part of the Nightmare Factory, only adds to the significance of this reunion.


The unexpected highlight for both live and remote spectators came when Arn Anderson appeared, cheering on Cody Rhodes at the WWE SummerSlam event. Prior to his match against Solo Sikoa, Anderson walked alongside Rhodes, offering him words of motivation and handing over Pharaoh so he could make a grand entrance. This short yet touching moment stirred feelings among fans who have followed his return to WWE. Anderson played a significant role in Cody’s AEW journey, managing him as part of the Nightmare Factory. After Rhodes decided to rejoin WWE in 2022, Anderson continued with AEW until the completion of his contract this summer.

Rhodes turned the wrestling world into a frenzy when he hinted at possibly wanting a “classic wrestling manager” and considering Arn was so integral to him in AEW, fans quickly connected the dots. Arn discussed the tender moment on his podcast and how exactly his SummerSlam appearance came to be. He explained that while he was already in town for SummerSlam weekend meeting fans, he received a text from Rhodes early in the morning that he describes as “like it’s in code.”

Rhodes managed to keep his Undisputed WWE Championship by enlisting some unexpected allies, and he’s now bound for “Bash in Berlin” where he’ll face off against one of those aids – Kevin Owens. Additionally, a World Heavyweight Championship bout is scheduled between Gunther and Randy Orton, who’s exercising his rematch option following the debatable ending at “King of the Ring“. Lastly, Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest will square off against their ex-Judgment Day teammate Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan – two individuals who betrayed the “Terror Twins” during “SummerSlam“.
