All Elite Wrestling recently held their Road To Jacksonville YouTube series in which Darby Allin and Dustin Rhodes both spoke about their opponents for the Homecoming episode of AEW Dynamite.
Darby Allin will be getting his rematch against “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes in a one-on-one match.
This is what Darby Allin said regarding Cody Rhodes:
“Cody’s hunger is undeniable, let me just get that out of the way. I respect the hell out of Cody. See first impressions are everything here and I feel like ever since we had that tie, I haven’t been able to prove myself to the world. If there was no time limit, I would have won that match. The history books may say that was a draw, to me it was a loss. Nothing personal with Cody, I’m just sick and tired of being told that I’m the underdog. I don’t give an s— about stepping in the ring with these guys and just barely getting by. I need those wins and I’m not just happy to be.”
“I don’t take anything granted cuz to me I grew up working at like the 99-cent store and I thought that was just gonna be my life, not knowing how you’re gonna get your next meal or struggling to pay rent. It gives me an edge because I’m willing to do anything to not go back. 2020, AEW, you better be ready for what Darby Allin’s gonna bring because I’m never going back to the life I had.
Dustin Rhodes, on the other hand, will be facing Sammy Guevara, which will also be a one-on-one match.
This is what Dustin Rhodes said regarding Sammy Guevara:
“Sammy, you are a narcissist, not a god. You think you can attain godlike status, well I’m just going to have to bring you back to reality. The facts are this, you are not a leader, you’re a follower of the Inner Circle. You’re an errand boy for Chris Jericho. I don’t know if you were orphaned as a child or you got dropped on your head, but you’re stupid to sit there and film me getting my arm broke by Jake Hager. Me lying on the ground, writhing in pain and you laughing your a– off. You’re stupid if you don’t think I’m coming for you. Sammy, you’re first. I will not falter. I will not fail. Sammy, this is your final reckoning and remember what I said, you’re not a god. Gods don’t want you, cuz you’re a reject.”
