EVOLVE has announced that Cody Rhodes vs. Johnny Gargano has been pulled from the 8/19 EVOLVE 66 event in Joppa, MD due to Gargano having a prior commitment. Cody’s new opponent for that night will be Zack Sabre Jr.

EVOLVE also announced that Cody’s opponent for EVOLVE 67 on 8/20 in Brooklyn will be Chris Hero.

They issued the following today:

July 5th: Johnny Gargano is now unable to attend the August 19th event due to another commitment. We apologize for having to change the scheduled Cody Rhodes vs. Johnny Gargano match. We will push this match back to September. This means that Cody needs a new opponent for his first post-WWE match. We’ve lined up one of the best going today….

July 5th: Cody Rhodes vs. Zack Sabre Jr. is now set for EVOLVE 66 on August 19th in Joppa, MD! This first-time-ever match will be a true test for both athletes.

July 5th: We all saw Cody Rhodes’ list on Twitter. Chris Hero’s name was on it. On August 20th, Cody can cross Hero off the list. It will be Cody Rhodes vs. Chris Hero on August 20th at EVOLVE 67 in Brooklyn, NY. This event has a special 3pm belltime so you can make it a double header with NXT at the Barclays Center that night!
