10 Most Outrageous Pro Wrestling Entrances
Not every pro wrestling entrance is a walk to the ring
3. Cody Rhodes - AEW Double Or Nothing 2019
At Double or Nothing 2019, Cody Rhodes and his brother Dustin stole AEW’s first-ever pay-per-view with a blood-soaked instant classic.
It was vindication for the Rhodes brothers, having had a WrestleMania dream match snatched away from them four years earlier, after (as Stardust and Goldust) they’d had a stinker at Fastlane.
Perhaps some of that lingering resentment crept into The American Nightmare’s grand entrance here.
In an obvious shot at WWE executive Triple H, Cody took a sledgehammer to a throne styled after the ones the Cerebral Assassin had previously used.
Rhodes later explained that the idea literally came to him in a dream and wasn’t just a shot at Hunter, but also a signal that he – as a then-AEW EVP – was focused on being a wrestler first and foremost.
Anyway, Cody’s big display raised quite a few eyebrows and seemed to signal the start of a rivalry between the two promotions.
