Cody was also present at the event. He was there to talk about Sunny Daze’s involvement in the ‘Over The Budget Battle Royale’ at ‘Double or Nothing’, AEW’s highly anticipated upcoming Pay Per View. Cody was advertised for the show in what is reportedly his last indie appearance before focusing fully on AEW. Jericho’s and Omega’s appearances were completely out of the blue though.
