Cody Rhodes Controversy at PWG Event
As we noted in our results coverage of Saturday night’s PWG Only Kings Understand Each Other event in Reseda, CA there was a bit of controversy in the match between former WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes and Trevor Lee. According to fans in attendance, Lee said something to the effect of “f*** Dusty Rhodes”, the late WWE Hall of Famer and father of Cody, which upset him before and during the bout.
Of course Lee was playing the heel in the match, and was in full character when making the otherwise tasteless remark, but it seems that everything has turned out fine in the aftermath. Cody took to Twitter after the PWG event:
I have ONE rule when you wrestle me or include me in interviews. I did not mention it to my opponent tonight. I apologize on my behalf…

…for the match in Reseda. 100% accidental. Folks get carried away. Apology accepted. Edited from the film. Thank you for understanding.
