AEW star QT Marshall not too long ago spoke with WhatCulture Wrestling about a variety of subjects, most notably his ideas on Cody Rhodes’ AEW departure and his grand return to WWE. Marshall, who may be very shut with the American Nightmare, says he hopes Rhodes is completely satisfied in his new journey, including {that a} world title win can be an excellent story. Highlights are under.
How Cody Rhodes opened a door for him within the trade:
“We discuss every single day, every single day. He doesn’t go into full element about what’s going to occur when he’s about to go on the market, however we nonetheless talk. He’s the closest factor I’ve to a greatest pal. He’s any individual that basically went above and past to open a door for me. He’ll be the primary to let you know; he opened the door, I did all of the work. Typically you want somebody to open that door for you and he was keen to do it. On the identical time, I used to be keen to work actually laborious and likewise realizing that his identify and popularity have been stamped on my again, it made me work even more durable. On the finish of the day, I say this on a regular basis, I believed he would return to WWE earlier than AEW had change into a factor. I believed, ‘Oh, I’m gonna prepare Brandi (Rhodes), I’ll work out with Cody for All In, however finally he’s going to return to WWE as a result of there was no AEW.’ I used to be okay with that as a result of I’m like, ‘I’m not going to WWE, they’ve already instructed me no.’ I’ll simply be his pal and that’s it. I used to be tremendous excited simply to have a peer within the wrestling trade who checked out me as a peer.”
His ideas on Cody returning to WWE:
“When AEW began, he requested me, ‘Do you need to be my assistant?’ ‘No, I need to wrestle, however certain, I’ll do no matter you ask me to do.’ We nonetheless communicate on a regular basis. I’m tremendous completely satisfied for him. That is one thing he actually wanted to do for himself, personally. truthfully, we’ve all been there. We’ve all had these, no pun supposed, crossroads in our careers the place we’ve to determine what’s higher for us personally. That sounds egocentric, however on the finish of the day, you’ll be able to solely make others completely satisfied should you’re completely satisfied. When you’re not completely satisfied, you’ll by no means be capable to make anybody else completely satisfied since you’re at all times striving for that happiness and there’s not sufficient to go round should you’re not completely satisfied. It sucks going to work each week with out him there, that’s the unhealthy half. The great is, watching Uncooked, I received to see his segments and I believed, ‘That is precisely what he most likely needed. Because of this he left within the first place, he needed to return again and be handled like this.’ They did. They’ve given, I’m certain, every thing he’s needed or else I can’t see him leaving. He needed to do what he needed to do and I hope the most effective for him. I hope he wins the world title as a result of that will be the best story of all. He’s a real babyface in that sense. The large warmth was him leaving WWE, and that is the comeback for him. We’re all witnessing it.”
