Malakai Black beat Cody Rhodes in dominant fashion at the end of this week’s AEW Dynamite, after Malakai Black knocked out Rhodes with a Black Mass before pinning him.
Rhodes then slowly made his way to his feet and cut a promo that hinted at retirement, even including a reference to in-fighting among the AEW EVPs.
Before Rhodes could remove his boots and leave them in the ring, Black returned and blasted him with a crutch to end the show.
