Brandi Rhodes Is Not Concerned With Cody Rhodes Overworking Himself

Cody Rhodes has a lot going on as Executive Vice President of AEW. He is also reportedly the only EVP who still shows up at the office on a regular basis. All of that work can be taxing for anyone, but his wife isn’t too worried about the American Nightmare.

While speaking to Busted Open Radio, Brandi Rhodes revealed that she isn’t worried about the workload that Cody Rhodes takes on himself. She knows that there are always busy times, because it is a hectic time for both of them. She also realizes that comes with the territory.

“No, I’m not concerned about him at all. And that’s because I am the closest person to him,” Rhodes said. “There are busier times in life and there are times where we kind of coast a little bit. This is the busiest time for both of us that it’s ever been. You just have to learn how to adjust, and you have to give people grace for that adjustment period. I’ve been the most organized person I’ve ever known, forever. You tell me something, boom! I never forget a name, I never forget a face. Lately you could be in my face for twelve hours straight, and then I turn away and I look back and I don’t remember you because my brain is screwed up from becoming a new parent. That’s just what happens.”

“So then you have to learn how to adjust and work from there. ‘Okay, the things I was doing before aren’t working now.’ For instance, I am an old ass woman at heart and I write everything down in a planner, with pen and paper. I know that people from a newer generation are like ‘what? There are planners?’ But I used to do that and that was my way of making sure I had everything. Not anymore.”

“Now I’ve got a digital planner on my phone, because the second somebody says something to me, I have to write, put it in the phone. And it has to be a fifteen minute alert beforehand. So if I don’t do that, I do things like miss the PR call yesterday that was my phone call, and have a bunch of people on the phone just waiting for me. That’s something that’s not characteristic of me at all, but since having the baby, that is what I have to do. Otherwise, I will miss everything, every single time.”

Cody Rhodes’ responsibilities encompass all aspects of the pro wrestling business at this point. He also has to worry about his reality television show, Rhodes To The Top. Rhodes still finds time to unwind and let some of those stresses go, but that won’t change his work ethic. Brandi Rhodes also doesn’t seem too concerned, because her husband has it all together.
