As seen during the 2024 WWE Summerslam PLE, Arn Anderson made a surprise appearance when he gave a pep talk to Undisputed Universal champion Cody Rhodes. While speaking to media after the event, Cody commented on the segment…

“For people who follow just the general story and the road I’ve been on, Arn is a huge part of it; I had made that decision. When I was with AEW, I’d made the decision that, ‘Hey, I can’t have my dad for this stuff. He’s not here physically. I want someone who was with him.’ They didn’t have to be an ally, they could have been an adversary. He came in and he was such a piece of sanity for me during a really chaotic time. Arn is one of the smartest people you’ll meet in pro wrestling/sports entertainment. But he’s also so ahead of the curve in the sense like, ‘Hey, I see where this is going.’ Arn has always been able to be there.

For me, it was just special to have a moment with him. Particularly one where he wasn’t threatening to shoot me or something of that nature. It was nice because he means he means a great deal to me. I hope we see more of Double-A.” (quote courtesy of Fightful.com)
