While Cody Rhodes was hugely popular with All Elite Wrestling fans as a babyface during the company's initial couple of years, fan sentiment turned against The American Nightmare throughout 2021 and Cody began to be mostly booed by those in attendance at AEW events.

There was even a situation where Cody threw his weightlifting belt into the audience, only to have it thrown back into the ring by fans inside the arena, similar to John Cena at ECW One Night Stand 2006.

Rhodes has now given his thoughts on the boos, replying to a fan who attacked those who booed the three-time TNT Champion.

In response to the fan, Cody wrote: "Appreciate it fam But it's all good - it was the quirky thing to do for a minute and as a wrestler you just want 'loudest the longest' - I had some fun matches amidst that noise, wouldn't change a thing. It led us into this next chapter, truly a love story."

Rhodes would ultimately depart AEW in February 2022 and he returned to WWE at WrestleMania 38. He has since announced his pursuit of the WWE Championship but before that, he will face Seth Rollins in a rematch at WrestleMania Backlash on May 8.
