Brodie Lee is coming off of a 46-day reign as AEW TNT Champion after losing it back to Cody Rhodes on this week’s Dynamite.
The now-former champion recently revealed on the AEW Unrestricted podcast that he didn’t think he was originally supposed to win the title when the feud started.
“I believe that the original plan was for me to not become TNT Champion. I don’t know much, I’m not privy into the ins and outs, the nuts and bolts of it all, probably because I don’t want to be because if I have a thought in my head, I’ll quickly become married to it and then if something changes, I go insane. I try not to know too much and I kind of just live in the moment. I learned my lesson the hard way over many, many years, so I try to stay level-headed and not get too much information and receive things as they are presented to me. The match itself was presented to me like a week or two before it even happened, so I just wanted to train and look the part and do whatever is asked of me.”
Cody ended up taking some time off to film a new reality competition show that will soon premiere on TBS. Cody is now back full-time to reign as champion once again. It remains to be seen what’s in store for Lee as the leader of The Dark Order.
