Last night at AEW Fight for the Fallen, Cody and his older brother Dustin fell to the team of Matt & Nick Jackson, the Young Bucks. The win was the 3rd straight for the Young Bucks but the Rhodes brothers have not been as successful in the new promotion. Cody’s record is now 1-1-1 after having defeated his brother, went to a time-limit draw with Darby Allin, and now lost to the Young Bucks.
